My heart beats in my chest
My chest rises and falls as my breathing slows
I think of you and a smile crosses my face
I feel a pain in my chest
A ripping that stems from my heart
IT tears me in two along the middle
I am pulled
By some invisible force
In either direction
My smile turns as it is ripped in half
My eyes are closed
They do not open
My lifeless body remains still
I lay
Ripped in two
A victim of events I cannot control
The wishes and wants of my heart
Against the antagonism of the world
My soul is mendable though
Even if my body is not
Stitches and time can heal me
But my body will remain broken
Treat my soul carefully
For I place it delicately in your hands
All of my being I have left
I trust to you
