Matters of the Heart

Narrow was the path I walked
Filled with gravels and stones
The people it surrounded were all but illiterate
Gifted with all knowledges 
But lack the heart 

Thus I stand before you
Neither with pride nor ego
But a sabotaged brain pleading for the heart
For it has never felt love and had to show it in return 

Forgive on how I behaved
For I thought too much and felt too little 
I learnt all the mechanism of the heart
Yet this knowledge is nothing but strange to me

But I swear on the very heart that
Not another day on this earth shall pass
That I won't be a slave for your love

Great work, my heart must learn the way to love, and to receive love in return. I love the way you expressed each verse. Says; Abed
