Give Me a Heart

Give me your heart,
I'll give you mine
No it's not broken, 
My heart is just fine. 
Give me a heart,
Replace mine with yours
No it's not broken,
It's just kind of torn.
Give me a heart,
I have none left
Mine fell apart,
And left me for dead.
Give me a heart,
I'll take good care
No I'm not crying,
I'm happy I swear!
Give me a heart, 
I'm broken inside
I fell like nothing, 
Like I've already died.
Give me a heart,
Something to hold
As my breath starts to cease
And my death unfolds.

Welcome to the Soup. Your poem evokes the feeling of heart broken emotion that you try to hide until you can't hide anymore... great creativity :)
