The Heart

The heart is a powerful thing 
The beat keeps the rhythm going
I never understand the power of its work
It is like the spring of all my come forth

What people don’t know it is a powerful thing?
When it is hurt the pain never ends,
The strike of flow when a clot or stroke occurs in the heart
When some one you love hurt you and you can’t get over it.

What do I know about love?
 It hurts 
It hurts to be rejected and scrutinized
 Because you’re not good enough for them
You’re not cute enough like the other girl
You don’t have all the qualities.

Well you’re missing the big picture
What do I think love is?
I think it is what is on the inside 
Not what you can grad on
I think love is some one you can trust 
And tell secrets too
And listen to you
Be your support in the time of need 
To hold you when you cry and talk too late at night
With open arms

A lot of people prospective are to
 Hurt you and break you

The heart is a soft thing 
And after a while the heart will thin
And the day when you figure out 
There will be no chance to tell your feeling
To the sad and lonely heart.
