Thumping

Don’t know if I want to
Don’t know if I want to be there
Don’t know whether you are going to be there
Why do you ask for something when you are not prepared to give?
I don’t know
Somehow this heart is touched in its fragile part
And it does not want to break
Let’s see if it can be repaired
Don’t know how long it will take
But sure it will take some time
Is it still functioning?
Questionable 
But it’s still pumping
So I guess
Prepare for a marathon?
No chance
