Hearts Desire

The heart 
It wants what it wants
But does it really know
What to do
Where to go
Can it peer behind the curtain
Can it at all
Will it at all
Ever certain
When the Veil lifts
Will it be allowed to drift
Off to a land of fairytale
Wings a flutter
The heart stuck
Black tide
What if the heart can’t breach
Destination loneliness
Never settled
Always at unrest
But hey
The heart knows best
