Poem Title:
Poem
Not many know, But my heart is So fragile and pure And feels so many Emotions and cares So deeply about others And always wants to Do the right thing Even if it inconveniences me And to always do right By others even if That means putting My own self aside I can't tell the Number of things That have happened To me to make you Wonder how I still Have such a heart As mine, but it's true And it would break If anything truly Horrible would happen Just one more time, But because of all That has befallen me I now have a barrier Around my heart, Securing it from the Pain of daily life And from human nature With the pain, The sadness, The anxiety, And the fear That I have been through, I developed my Saving grace that Keeps my heart Mostly intact And blocks out The darkness that Could blot out its light; I cherish it because Without it I would Have been gone Long ago without Having ever made Any mark on the world I am thankful for My caring heart And for the protection Around it so I can Feel such empathy For others and relate To them more and So I can be able To write as I do And imbue my Emotions directly Into words like this, Sharing them for Any who want to read And allow myself To feel those emotions Without wanting to End it all by reliving Old emotions and scenes In the end, I'm glad to be alive And be able to care So much with what I like to call a Golden heart While still keeping Myself in a happy state Made for me and For me to keep, Protected by my Boundary-clad heart Written on March 6, 2021
