To My Lonely Heart...!

I am trying to comfort my own heart…
The only thing I have so dear to me…
The only thing that keeps me alive...
The only thing I will hurt when I am hurt...
The only friend and one relation I given....
It is my lonely heart…my own god given heart...
I know I don’t have a perfect one...
Yet I still have its pieces left  Behind...
Many times I tried to join and bring it to one...
But no mercy... people would break it at once...
People trample and take out dignity away...
Many nights I hear my heart crying in shame...
Heart is not willing to accept friendship or  love again...
Not willing to keep in touch…not even in thoughts...in anyway..
But I will never question my heart...
Because I know…and I feel...i see..
No matter who leaves me…who neglects me...
My heart will always beats for me…
I thank god for my heart...for it want be beating 
If I never had this strong heart..!
