I Stopped to See My Heart

I stopped to see my heart
It’s been many, a year
I touched it with my hands
And didn’t feel, any fear.

It felt like I remembered
A beat, steady and strong
I’d wondered if it’d weakened
For, it has been so long.

It was warm and comforting
It, made my mind thoughts, spin
Dreaming of that special time
I might have it back, again.

So many years of wasted time
Which, never will return
But it hasn’t doused the flame
That, will forever, burn!

Maybe not everything I wanted
But, more than I should expect
‘Cause, I never gave that heart and love
What, I know and respect!

A stupid time in my life
When, my heart went away
A great regret, of my life
I think about, everyday.

But, I stopped and saw my heart
And I saw, it’s doing well
And when, it does, it’s final beat
I'll know, that, it did swell!

The good news could be that there is no hell, but the bad news is that if you expect one and imagine it ... it could actually manifest, according to your own thoughts.

So, give your heart a chance to LOVE and to find paradise!

Well written!

Love,
Margherita

Wow, I love the conclusion now.

Indeed your heart is very deserving as you always show us through your poetry how much you care. Your heart "swells" with love and sensitivity.

Well done.

Love,
Margherita
