Fragile Heart

My beating heart is weak,
Things looking so bleak.
Only stitches and glue,
Doing what they can do.
Keeping it all from bursting or tearing apart,
But you already knew about my fragile heart.

My Heart was completely whole once before,
But enduring the pain became a chore.
It used to beat with a passion,
Always filled with compassion.
Long before it learned how to bleed,
But the world is filled up with greed.

It gave up on pumping, forgot how to love,
The light was fading, the push came to a shove.
Teary eyes and memories, my hearts seen it all,
It constantly watched me get up, only to fall.
Feeling abandoned, broken and betrayed,
Only by stiches and glue, it was saved.

Stiches and glue brought it together,
Heart now feeling light as a feather.
Glue sealed all the cracks,
Stitches closed the gaps.
Deep down, you knew about all this too,
Because where there was stitches and glue...

There was you.
