Heart
Muscle of endurance,
Pumping life in my
veins,
Reason for my being,
Edifice of vivacity,
A child at play,
Erudite at times,
Temple of philosophy,
Displaying surprising
naiveté,
Shenanigans galore,
There you go running
into trouble again,
Innumerable times,
Have you been broken,
Still you refrain to
grasp,
The self-centered
core of the other’s whole,
Devoid from logic,
You tread on a
dangerous path,
Looking for shadows
long gone,
Searching for things
never to be found,
Intent on recklessness,
When will you learn?
Ages of anguish,
Lust for peace,
Quest for the truth,
Desire to be loved,
Eager to be seen,
Packing bouts of
hope,
Object of marvel, worthy
of awe,
Rebel for life,
A shield that
protects,
A vow of the soul…
