A Heart Needs Its Beat

A Heart Needs Its Beat

A Poem by KeatonLouis

It's like a record, without a player
Is just a collection
It's like a breath, without its air
A ride without its fair
It's a compass without direction

It's like a mold, without its teeth
It's a bad impression
It's like a drug, without its disease
A leaf without its tree
Is always second guessing

It's like cards, without its game
Is just a deck
It's like wings, without its plane
A track without its train
Is your alternate method

It's like a four-leaf clover, without its wish
Is just a thought
It's like a love, without its kiss
A sea without fish
Is the chance you never got

It's like a song, without its instruments
Is just a story
It's like an action, without its reason
A winter without its seasons
Is just a Monday morning

It's like s nightmare, without its fear
Is just an empty feeling
It's like a sadness, without it's tears
A month without its year
Is just your sanity peeling

It's like s promise, without its truth
Is just a lie
It's like a photo, without its booth
A pain without its bruise
Is letting your memories die

It's like a child, without its parents
Is just an Orphan
It's like a flat tire, without its spare
A spark without its flare
Is a cheap bottle of wine with no cork in

It's like one foot in the door, when, the floor boards bend & sends
More friends you adore, to abort your mends
Like Thor, reborn again, with the strength of ten men
Supporting the stories and lore we created then, with them
Exploring for, new beginnings
A different ending & getting rid of these s****y morals
That sleep in my bed, snoring, and keeping me from sorting through
My morning of enormous hurdles
Towards more of a mortal core
Instead of cutting the cord, to short
Before the shore suffocates from old water and beached coral

Whew, once again grammar and punctuation. Still real new at this.
