Thou Heart of Mine

Heart of mine Cry and feel again, oh thou heart of mine heart. Afford me peace of mind, be moved and beat once again in my depths; for a dream within me, that happiness will yet save ye a dance. Am I still unchanged short of you? A change of heart, a change of mind? Now my dry but once passionate heart; Old and cynical my once young gullible heart The wineskin remains young still but within, through trials of strife i´ve long matured and i am very weary Cynicism now my gullibility. A pyre for my humour. A change in order and value. Second guessing my heart; so now do I love with mind? Thoughts askew, muddled with hurt. Emotions buried deep down the chaos of my present state. Shot circuited, disconnected; woe thou my little heart and rue the day you broke; for now mind teacheth ye cold reason. Loving you and hurting. Knowing that you hurt so much. I groan trying to squeeze out that tear, I writhe in pain; I will cry yet. Already missing you; I will break that age old glacier and cry with a heart that truly lives. I must find strength to love and let go? Well what doubts we had; doubt is a double edged sword. It hacketh both ways. Live once again for those whispers and dreams, the dancing shadows of a candlelit fire. The dreams we shared, Pesky dreams and big dreams alike. Finding reasons to stop crying. Finding reasons to laugh at cynical humour; finding reasonable reasons to Love with both mind and heart. Does this end?..... Oh! Thou Heart of flames Cry and feel again, Blaze oh thou heart of mine heart. Afford me peace of mind, be moved and beat once again in my depths; for a dream within me, that happiness will yet save ye a dance.
