Hey, Heart... Poem by Katerina Val

Hey, Heart...



A heart beating from enthusiasm
trembling for all these times it got stuck on a faux-pas
and yelling for all those seconds it forgot to ask
did you adore it enough?

A heart tearing into one and a second part
before it decides to reach the third, it has to stop
and hold the fact that it fell and still, it is not enough
so, giggling in a false step
stuck off, you stole my sit in hell

A psychotic heart
redeeming the things it didn't kill enough
strangling the thoughts it didn't need to have
oh my poor, frozen heart
don't you see yet that you are tired enough?
hide your lament in my brain and I'll call it insane
hide your pride in my shame and I'll have to call you insane
‘cause we still havel co-operate
we shalll work together heart
I'll give you my body and we'll find a step so far
far enough, to hide from all these things we didn't have
we don't have
to hide from all this stuff…

Don't cry my heart
keep on pushing blood to run
sending blood to my veins so that I can breathe enough
before I fall and die I need to know that you'll be fine
don't die my heart
for, if I die
they need to love something that I don't really have

Get rid of them my heart
we don't need any of it to keep it strong
we shall be hard enough
to stay alone
and fight for the things we have to hate
and stop
hide it my heart
pain was never yours
and I was never enough
we shall dive together, heart
take off your cover
and undress the truth
you need to see me
for one last time
before you reach me.
