Inane heart,
How I wish with you to part,
You are the equivalent of my death,
Even as you beat with my every breath,

Inane heart,
If only your wants I could restart,
You’re a hopeless thing,
Of which only with pain can bring,

Inane heart,
You and I lack the ability to impart,
You walk in one direction,
And I hold back in objection,

Inane heart,
We have grown apart,
You’ve only led me in the past to pain and sorrow,
Left me dark and left me hollow,

Inane heart,
I plead we compromise,
And our wants equalize,
I’ll let you love inane heart to your content,
But you will never fall too hard in order my brokenness prevent.
