Dear Heart

Dear heart, I know I let the world hurt you,
I let them use you,
I let them use you as a hotel
I know it hurts, I know it breaks you 
I know now you can't be fixed by sympathetic words.
I know now you feel insecure about people even knowing you,
but I also know you feel happy when you feel the warmth of love,
I know you feel better when we sit under a tree feeling the breeze,
I know you feel flattered when you feel the butterflies in you.
I know dear heart that we are enough for each other and we don't need the world to rule.
