Mr Heart

by Lainie Reay   Oct 5, 2019


All by himself the heart it did sit,
Waiting for the fire within to be lit,
He waited & waited & waited some more,
and as if out of no-where his fire did roar.

Beating to music he felt all around,
The drums in his heart made a wonderful sound,
So happy & carefree was this heart with his match,
so lucky was he to get such a good catch.

Till one day it ended she'd found arteries new,
and this little red heart had turned shades of blue,
Broken in two & so angry was he,
Sadness & self pity was all he could see.

Till one day he realised he wasn't to blame,
and sometimes two hearts just don't beat the same,
so if your heart is broken it will become new
As time is a healer just add super glue.

    I love this Lainie. It's almost reads like a limerick and its jaunty pace is in direct contrast to the content making it all the more interesting! :-) x

    This is great Lainie
    I love what you create
    You have given two hearts
    A human trait

    Though sad how it ended
    But given some hope
    I'm glad that your heart
    Was able to cope
