Heart

Let anything bother me
But, it won't murder me

Let it make me crazed;
Of that, I'm not fazed

Who cares not to know
Tell-
Please, if all and all
Is well

Pains! Gains! Chains!
We share,
Chains!
We break

All for one, one for all.

Even when my heart's scared,
It cares!

Give me shoes- your shoes
Let me walk in your shoes

And, the way together, we shall walk.

Heart is in prison
Heart is in the wood
Tell me the reason
E'en though I'll feel blue

Why do I care so much about this heart?
It fell in love with the you it does sense

It can't stop loving
Can't stop throbbing

Oh, can't stop!

Can't stop asking:
How is she?
How is my halflife?
Where is mine?

Heart wants to be complete
Heart loves no defeat
Heart loves no deceit

Let anything bother me
But, it won't murder me

My Lady, tell
Please,
If all is well.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
