I'll Still Have A Heart

I'll still have a heart— Long the beating orb goes; I'll still have a heart— Even if made a ghost. I'll still have a heart— Veins run clear to the pain, I'll still have a heart— That is gentle with its flame. I'll still have a heart— A dream through a mask; I'll still have a heart— Translucent in your clasp. I'll still have a heart— Its polished floor raked; I'll still have a heart— Eyes a full brim to satiate. I'll still have a heart— Though clouds gather 'round to make its shadow bleak; I'll still have a heart— When I look at you...looking at me.

Ah the refrains here are so catchy, now its running through my mind “ ill still have a heart” and that last line really is soul hitting! How you’ve built it up to that was so creative of you! You are truly a beautiful word weaver
