The Big Heart Decides
Your heart as big as the whole world,
without you being counted.
It's not a choice of yours.
It doesn't feel good, to be this big.
Because even when you're big -
you aren't whole.
You're searching for the one,
who could fill this painful void
in your big heart of yours.
But this big heart you share with everyone
and then disappoint yourself.
Because not the whole world deserves this big heart of yours.
But then, why share it and not keep it?
Lock it away and keep it safe from this cruel world of ours?
You're searching for someone out there,
who could fill your void.
You know,
someone could fill your void with a big heart, so you try the filling too.
Exhausted you get,
every time you forget to love yourself enough with your big heart of yours too.
And then,
the pain isn't the void anymore.
It's the heart you can't trust.
The bond,
which is broken from the failures you've gotten.
But you can't stop.
You realize,
you are the big heart,
and can't change that.
Why, you don't know
- the big heart decides so,
and you, you follow.
