Thoughts For Mg
how much pain can a heart hold?
is it like a cup?
overflowing when it’s full?
like a balloon?
expanding until it bursts?
will the gushing loss
of future memories
ever cease?
birthdays we’ll not celebrate?
sandy beaches we won’t walk?
quiet times we won’t share?
or
is the heart like a net?
does it capture all the memories,
all the hopes and plans and dreams
along with the pain?
does the good remain
and the rest just seep
slowly away?
