Total Eclipse of the Heart
A Poem on Self-preservation
"Turn around......" Yes, the acrostic poem Vocal challenged us to write made me think of the song by Bonnie Tyler. Many challenging situations daunt us in life, and we hide our hearts to protect our feelings.
A total eclipse of the heart preserves our emotions and prevents hurt. Yet, it can block the inflow of blessings in one's life. How do we's
Boundaries help you prioritize your emotional well-being while still remaining open to receiving blessings. Practice self-awareness, communicate your needs clearly, and surround yourself with supportive and nurturing relationships.
Enjoy this acrostic poem.
Eclipse of the heart locks a broken door
Chains in place, darkness a cure
Love's entry, however, blocked
Inflow of Kindness, mocked
Perceptiveness is a pliable key
Speaking one's mind sometimes a need
Every heart and mind in place.
