My Pleading Heart

This pain that I feel

Reaching up from the deepest parts of my soul

It twists me

It mauls me

Slowly creating this deep gash in my heart

LIke at any given moment my heart will shatter into a billion peices

Like its exhausted and needs rest

rest that I cannot give

It burns a hole through my chest

Through my soul

It burns a hole in the person that I am

and that I hope to be

It asks me

It pleads me

For rest

For it to stop pumping

But who am I to be with no heart?
