A Beautiful Heart
Hearken!
 Listen to my heart as it thuds against its cage
 Against its rage
 Against this restraining little space it must call home
 It beats
 It thuds
 It bangs
 It booms
 It roars from its lonely little space
 So small, so
 Small
 So lonely
 
 Hearken!
 Listen to my heart as it calls
 For you
 For you soon
 To remember what it was like when you eyes were still new
 It wants your approving smile
 Your eyes
 Your lips
 Your fingers caressing its hair as you pull in for a kiss
 So happy, so
 Happy
 So lovely
 
 Hearken!
 Listen to my heart as it cries
 For your approving eyes
 Your approving sighs
 Your approvement rising to accept the life
 That you so stubbornly deny
 My heart cries
 It sobs
 It screams
 It wails from the idea that you do not accept it
 Simply because of its beauty
 Or rather, lack there of
 The beauty you do not behold
 The beauty you’ve sold
 To so many low-lives
 So low, so
 Low
 So lonely
