My Heart, My Mind, My Truth and My Find

Sloths, the slowest creature
slowest mind
slowest feature
as you sit upon that bleacher
waiting for a simple teacher
you feel something is missing 
yet nothing is missing
you want something to be missing 
to find something fitting 
this is like a record
always repeating
life is slowly leaving 
hearts barely beating 
the flock is slowly fleating
im barely sleeping 

how can you say something is there 
wheh nothing is really there
you say when you look back something is there
yet when i turn around nothing seems to be there

your heart is empty
because you left it 
on the stairs 
back at home 
its all alone

the heart is bleeding
because the bullet thats fully stuck
inside this heart that is stuck
in the little crack thats pulling it back

its funny 
how the world turns sunny
when the heart has a frown 
cause someone stole its voice and its smile

now this heart is all alone
cause no one will hold
this heart that is crying
simple becuase it is dieing

its all alone 
inside its home
where it was left
simply because it broke

that simple heart 

is yet to be discovered 
as it hides under the covers 
with its new found lover
yet now its lover leaves from under the covers
leaving this heartbroken lover

if you can see this simple heart 
then you are a magician
cause it was broken from the very start
you gont know what this heart has been through
you dont have a single clue
you all just hide from the truth
yet wonder who this heart belongs to
the girl the gave up on it

simple because she couldnt deal it
it broke her from the very start
so she gave it away so she wouldnt feel it 
but now she has no one to hold
because of this shes really bold
to get attention just to feel whole 
her heart was her everthing
it made her who she was

yet now shes different
and we all know the cause

Wow. That's really moving. I just want to say: I gave up on love for a whole year, 28 years ago. Decided to be celibate for life. Then, I met my wife, the love of my life, and we had 27 wonderful years before she passed last year. BUT IT WAS WORTH IT! Real Love Always Is. Your poem is wonderful. Good thing we have poetry for when life hurts.
