BLEEDING HEART (POEM)

Intro:
In my musings this afternoon, I began to contemplate the human heart, precisely the kind of heart that we need in the world today that is torn by strife, division, hatred and other negative emotions. Below is the product of my musings. I hope it blesses you.

BLEEDING HEART

The heart that loves without pause
The heart that loves with no cause
The heart that stretches itself beyond limit
That is the bleeding heart

The heart that hides its complaints
The heart that endures its torments
The heart that squeezes joy from its pains
That is the bleeding heart

March on, bleeding heart!
The One who went before you taught you well
The One whose sweat was like drops of blood
United with Him you overcome
And live on though your life is drained by the day

March on, bleeding heart!
You are the glue that binds lives together
You are the peace that eludes the world today
In you the tempter finds no foothold
As you alone can douse the fires he ignites

March on, bleeding heart!
Till your Lord is enthroned as King of all
And paradise lost is fully restored
Where there would be no more hearts of stone
Till then, march right on, bleeding heart!

    Wow, that’s wonderful! Bless you!

  • okereke chukwuemeka Matthew

    You re the glue that binds life together
    You re the peace that eludes the world today!.
    This two verses caught my attention because seeing what is happening around us today, I believe we need the bleeding heart to glue our life and hearts together because when it does, there will be no hatred among brother’s, no tribalism, no sectionalism but one life and one heart.
    Then the other verse talks about peace which can never be obtained without a life bound together. Imagine a world where brothers Love themselves and re keepers of each other, imagine a world where tribalism ceases to exist, imagine a world where we see each other as equals. That world will be devoid of war but full of peace and prosperity. Thank you ma for such an inspiring peom. I love it. More GRACE..

  • What a touching poem …
    A heart sooo precious
    What more can we ask for?

  • uzoma chidera

    Wow!! This is deep…this talks about, anger, persistence, unity, pain, etc…The bleeding heart??.
    Thank you ma for the inspiration you’ve been impacting in me.

  • Sefiya

    If we all have a bleeding heart, the world will be a better place, a heart that is able to squeeze joy from pain and even love with no cause … I was very blessed when I read this piece. Thank you very much ma

  • Ugwu Ifunanya k.

    A heart that gives love without cost?… March On Bleeding Heart, for one-day you shall find solace!

  • EKWUEME VICTOR OBIORA

    No doubt, the heart in question is Jesus. I don’t think any other creature on earth has this kind of heart. Obviously, the human heart is filled with malice, pride, hatred and bitterness, lust and such more. Though Christians claim to have such a bleeding heart, but when you critically observe some of them you will find out their achilles heel. Well, we shall continue to ask God to give us bleeding hearts p so that we would enjoy peace and unity in this country. Thanks ma for sharing this post.

  • Onwuka Chinaecherem Emmanuel

    The heart that loves without pause
    The heart that loves with no cause
    The heart that stretches itself beyond limit.

    This is truly the bleeding heart.
    The heart that loves without pause & with no cause. This piece is indeed inspiring; & the use of rhymes & suiting alliteration makes it outstanding.
    Keep up the good work ma.

  • Josiah Judith Enobong

    The heart that goes through all these hard times and difficult situations & still survives is indeed a bleeding heart.

    Thank you, Aunty Edith, for this wonderful piece of encouragement. May God’s blessings never lack in your home.

  • EDEH CYNTHIA OLUOMACHI

  • Okemiri Ifunanya Diana

    March on bleeding heart for his love is everlasting. This bleeding heart is our Lord. He is the only one who loves without checking the worth of the person he is showing love to, he is the only one that looks upon his children and says it will be well with you, he is the King of kings and the Lord of lords. I pray he continues to show us love and he will never allow us to be lonely.

  • Eze Benjamin Oduma

    This is indeed the kind of heart we need in this troubled world, a world torn apart by hatred, by tribalism, unhealthy religious rivalry and inordinate strife. We have to pray and long for such a charming, bleeding heart. And I’d love to echo:
    “March on, bleeding heart!
    Till your Lord is enthroned as King of all
    And paradise lost is fully restored
    Where there would be no more hearts of stone
    Till then, march right on, bleeding heart!”
    Keep up the good work, ma.

  • March on! all bleeding hearts?. All I feel like doing after reading this post is cry?… I am happy that others have noticed the negativity and competition in the world today. Living above all that makes me whole. The best we can do is add little drops of goodness to the world. In fact, I am lost for words. The post really blessed my life.???

  • Alexis Okoye

    what an interesting an nice poem.God bless u.

  • Ugwoke ifechukwu melvina.

    I love this piece. If only our leaders had hearts like that , then Nigeria wouldn’t be such a bad place. Its a very deep and heart touching poem. I really enjoyed it .

  • Ishiwu victor c

    If only we possess the bleeding heart, things would be better. Wish we are blessed with the bleeding heart of Jesus. Peace, joy and love will forever remain with us. Sometimes, I ask myself what could be our fate if Jesus didn’t die to save us from sin. The world would have been filled with hatred, war, evil and destruction. I pray that one day everyone’s heart will be like the bleeding heart of Jesus Christ.

  • Ohakwe Oluchi Judith

    The heart that hides its complaints and the glue that binds us together… If we can emulate this bleeding heart and stop complaining about every little thing, if we can love ourselves just as him, if we can live together in peace and harmony, if we can see ourselves in others; then this world will be a better place and the Paradise lost will be restored… This poem is deep and glory-filed!

  • Asogwa Emmanuel C

    The heart that does all these, their’s is the kingdom of God. The basic rudiments of expected life from us while we tread on earth is the bleeding heart! In this heart, the true nature of our God is made manifest and in this kind of heart lies the total solution to today’s world problems. Its the only heart that can express unconditional love just like our Lord Jesus did. Though it’s hard to obtain but it is a virtue that can be obtained through Faith in Christ Jesus

  • Ujevwe Emmanuel

    A heart that is not selfish and Greedy is the kind the world needs. As humans we should adopt some characteristics of the bleeding heart so as to make the world a better place. “The heart that squeezes joy from its pain” this is true sacrifice

  • Henry

    The Heart of Man is desperately wicked, so says the Bible. But it was his choice to be wicked and also his choice to have change of heart. We need hearts that long to show love and heal not hate and break. God mend our hearts, Amen.

  • Godwin Maxwell

    This stanza got me
    “March on, bleeding heart!
    You are the glue that binds lives together
    You are the peace that eludes the world today
    In you the tempter finds no foothold
    As you alone can douse the fires he ignite”

    The only bleeding heart that always care about us…..
    I see no one that possess that kind of heart except Jesus……
    The poem is so touching that I’m tempted to reading it over and over again..
    Wonderful poem…

  • ologhofor sampson

    I just learnt new things about my heart(the bleeding heart) and i will continue to march on no matter how hurt the heart is and no matter how it bleeds,i will continue to squeeze out joy from it.

  • Ugwoke ifechukwu melvina.

    This quote really got me ” the heart that loves with no cause ” . this piece is very deep. A lot of people love and trust with all their hearts and when that trust is broken, so is the love. Its very hard to love someone in this modern age without being afraid that your feelings are reciprocated. A lot of us have gotten our hearts broken in one way or the other but that doesn’t mean that we would shut our hearts off and not love . I believe that to not love is inhuman and no matter how hurt you maybe, love conquers all.

  • Obidigbo Ifunanya Nino

    This poem is so wonderful and gives us an idea how good the lord has been in our lives. The Lord gives us his heart with no cost attached, we do not pay for the love and kindness he gives to us but the only thing we owe him is to serve him dutiful and worship his holy name, thanks for the heart touching poem ma.

  • Ezeorah Cynthia Somtochukwu

    The heart that reigns forever

  • izunobi stanislaus

    “The heart that hides its complaints and endures it’s torments”. A moment of silence for all the women around the world that are being caged, maltreated, tortured and bullied by their husbands

  • Agu Ginika Rebecca

    This is a very touching and reflective poem which tries to signify the need for a pure contrite and repented heart. It shows the type of heart that man ought to posses in a world like this, especially in the line that says ” you are the peace that eludes the world today” if such a heart prevails in the world today, maximum peace would be attained in the world and things would smoothly any form of chaos. Also if such a heart exists in man, he would turn a new leaf as there would be no more heart of stone, restoring that peaceful co-existence in the world today. Christians should also posses a heart like this…

  • Omenma Ndidiamaka Patience

    Human heart is wicked. If only we can have a bleeding heart. A heart made of flesh. A heart that can love and endure, the world will be a paradise awaiting its king.

  • Okafor chiamaka

    The heart of a human is a beautiful part of every human. The first part says a lot. A heart that endures all things a heart that bears all torment; if we humans can train our hearts to be as beautiful as it should be, I believe the world will be a better place.

  • Okafor chiamaka Miracle

    The heart is a beautiful part of every human. The first part says a lot. A heart that endures all things, a heart that bears all torment, if we humans can train our hearts to be as beautiful as it should be, I believe the world will be a better place

  • Ugwu Chiamaka Peace

    The bleeding heart. Only the heart knows how much pain it endures and how much joy it harbours. We do not have a perfect heart and that us why we rely on the One who left before us,Jesus. We shall continue to face the misery of the world until we get to the place where we wouldn’t need a heart of stone but of flesh. This is a touching poem. I think it is an encouragement for Christians.

  • Human heart is wicked. If only we can have a bleeding heart. A heart made of flesh. A heart that can love and endure, the world will be a paradise awaiting its king

  • Egbo Rita Somtochukwu

    This one really got me
    “March on, bleeding heart!
    Till your Lord is enthroned as King of all
    And paradise lost is fully restored
    Where there would be no more hearts of stone

    A bleeding heart,that is the kind of heart that everyone in this world needs right nw. Because the world seems to be filled with with hatred and darkness,and only this bleeding heart can bring light and love into this world once more.

  • Chidinma Obasi

    Wow, this bleeding heart must only be Jesus. For his love is kind, patience he loves without pause and with no cause, He stretched himself beyond limit when he said Abba father, everything is possible for you, take this cup from me. but due to his heart (love) knows no complain and endures its torments he also said “yet not my will, but your will” thank you for loving me father

May God help us.

  • Precious Gold

    A bleeding heart. A heart that can stretch itself beyond all limits. Such heart is rare and golden. The world may seem cold and insensitive. We need hearts that could love without needing any to reason to, to turn the story around. A heart that loves without cause. May God grant me such heart. Amen.

  • helen

    A bleeeding heart entails a heart of forgiveness, and compassion. if only we all possesed such a heart

  • Nnamani Oluoma Esther

    A bleeding heart shares love without malice, forgives without hesitation and is compassionate beyond measures. We should all have a bleeding heart for everyone around us and do so without discrimination.

  • Adonu Ifeanyichukwu B

    In a world full of injustice, hatred and betrayal the heart finds it hard to love. It takes grace and unity with God for a heart to love unconditionally. Help us lord to love without counting the cost Amen.

  • Sunday Ezekwesiri Daniel

    A bleeding heart full of love and compassion, a heart that forgives freely even before we apologise,a heart that endures, a heart that plead on our behalf even when we hurt Him. A heart of everlasting love that is the heart of my king the lord Jesus Christ. O lord grant us such heart, that we may love without a cause.

  • Dike Gerald Osinachi

    This post blesses me. The bleeding heart is what we need today. A heart that finds reason to comfort others. A selfless heart. A heart that reviles not even in anguish. This line interests me “a heart that hides it’s complaints”. In a world full of intolerance.where everyone finds reason to complain, a bleeding heart is needed to reconcile our differences. A bleeding heart is needed as a symbol that we can still be like Him who does not reject anyone and who loves “without cause”. A very good one.

  • OKEKE CHINONYE

    This is the heart that loves unconditionally as the heart of the one who walked before us!
    The heart that is kind, suffers for long, seeks not her own, bears all things, never fails, rejoice not in pains, endures all things, is not easily provoked, thinks no evil and envies not! The heart that bleeds!

  • Joshua igwe

    Oh bleeding heart, will thou be mine forever a heart that is ever loving and compassionate endures pain and anguish a heart that paints Jesus kind of love the same heart that bled our sins away.

  • Onwusonye promise

    The bleeding heart disappoints offenders with it’s gentleness. The heart that smiles when people think it will sob. A bleeding heart is not easy to have but necessary in everything we do. The one that has a bleeding heart knows how to live with others in the face of differences. A perfect example of Christian life is the life of a bleeding heart. May the bleeding heart be in us to bind us together.

  • Orji Chidubem Blessing

    No doubt this is the heart of Jesus, for the hearts of men are filled with evil. But with this bleeding heart, everyone is bound to receive that grace, love, kindness and forgiveness. This is a heart that loves unconditionally, a heart that loves without cause, a heart that accepts without pause. Thank you Jesus for your love

  • Ani Fabian

    A heart that choose to love despite hatred. A heart that wants peace amidst war.if only everyone can have these heart,the world would be a nice place to stay.The heart that love unconditionally.oh jesus lover of my soul.fill me lord with such heart.

    The heart that squeezes joy from its pain. This line really touched me. This is the type of heart we need in our society today.

  • Maduabuchi Emmanuel Chidera

    The heart that loves without pause
    The heart that loves with no cause
    The heart that stretches itself beyond limit
    That is the bleeding heart… These lines got me to reflect and all I can recall is the heart of our Lord Jesus Christ. I think as Christians we should try to emulate this heart in a world full of evil and wickedness and try to make the world a better place.

  • Ugwuaneke Grace U.

    The first two stanzas gives us a clear description of what the bleeding heart is,from the stanzas, one can denote that it is a heart that endures no matter what,and look forward for a better future,the third line of the second stanza noted thus”A heart that squeezes joy out of pain” no matter what a bleeding heart passes,it chooses to move on.this is a motivation to the soul and mind,as regards to what we see in our society today,we look up to God for help. and last stanza advises our bleeding heart to match for it is the joy that eludes the earth.interesting!

  • Otti Augusta Uzoma

    “The heart that loves without pause”
    “The heart that love without cause”
    Its not all about receiving, its about giving without expectations. This selfless bleeding heart is what Christ requires from us and its all the world needs to be a better place for mankind.

  • Onu Victor Tochukwu

    The bleeding heart here represents Christ’s heart. A heart that is devoid of hate, filled with love. A heart that suppresses his own problems to accommodate our problems. An infallible heart. If we all could have this heart, the world will be a better place to live in.

    A bleeding heart is a comfortless heart that the light is straying. The hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure. The comforter is here tenderly saying,earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot cure.

  • Ayigbo Chineme Edna

    I think we all need this bleeding heart. ‘The heart that loves without no cause, The heart that endures in torments’ We all need a heart like this to survive especially in this period of time in the world where everything is changing. Beautiful poem you got here ma.

  • Akaniru Chioma Theodora

    The heart that endures its torments
    The heart that squeezes joy from its pains.

    I pray that the Lord God should fill me with such heart.

  • ABONYI CHISOM. E.

  • Ezema Chidiebere Blessing

    our lord Jesus Christ is really the bleeding heart, his heart was full of sorrow, torment, pains but he endured it with joy, even though he did not deserve it.
    what is more painful today is that the heart that is suppose to be with love and care because of he went through for our sake is still in sorrow because of we fail to acknowledge his death, sin is like breaking Gods heart into pieces again, causing him more bleeding. Jesus son of David we are very sorry for hurting you through our sins.

  • Idika Uloma Sophia

    Interesting poem! This is similar to Michael Jackson’s song “Heal the world” and “Sleeping Child” by Michael Learns To Rock. All the way to Calvary, JESUS went for us. He died to set us free. No man will ever be like JESUS. We pray that God should grant us bleeding hearts to enjoy unity, peace and love in this country. You are highly blessed, ma’am.

    This is a very touching and reflective poem which tries to signify the need for a pure contrite and repented heart. It shows the type of heart that man ought to posses in a world like this, especially in the line that says ” you are the peace that eludes the world today” if such a heart prevails in the world today, maximum peace would be attained in the world and things would smoothly any form of chaos. Also if such a heart exists in man, he would turn a new leaf as there would be no more heart of stone, restoring that peaceful co-existence in the world today. Christians should also posses a heart like this…
