It was created over time
my 'state of heart'
and it bleeds
like an unhealing wound
My 'state of heart'
beats to an uncertain tune
reminding me
of notes that are ....
familiar
Every day they're heard
not in the same way though
as before
before, is long forgotten
My 'state of heart' tries to pull me
in directions that are
unacceptable
unwise
it is at times 'childlike'
'wide eyed'
caused maybe by a stolen youth
I think
I'm sure it weeps sometimes
my 'state of heart'
like an insignificant, weak object
and I ignore it of course
Why respond to such shallow sounds?
Disregarding it all
I continue ..
To acknowledge it means I'm there
I am far from it
I promise
It's just ..
my 'state of heart'
doesn't
realise
