Oh! My Heart

Up to you to decide what this is about

Oh! My heart
Why do you beat so
Despite the mind’s protestations, you’ve carried on

Oh! My heart
Why do you yearn so
Despite knowing you will never love, you remain a-romantic

Oh! My heart
Why do you break so
Despite these years, you remain as fragile as the day you were first tangible

Oh! My heart
Why do you cry out so
Despite so much love and care, you wail your throat raw

Oh! My heart
Why did you stop so
Despite what you went on for, you left unfinished
