Hearts
I admire my heart.
At times, it has taken a real pounding.
So many times, I have rejected it, ignored it
and apologized on its behalf.
I have devalued it in the past.
I am selling it short and treating it so cheaply -
yet, it still works.
it beats
it loves (you)
it has faith that Ole heart of mine.
it believes that days will get brighter
nights a bit sweeter.
it's a beautiful thing to simply be alive
one heart beat at a time.
