This Heart
September 14th 2010 00:41
Claws close my heart in,
making it seem smaller than I know it is,
though, I know its pain, it doesnt hurt.
Blunt jaws closing in,
squeezing life and love
not out, but deeper in,
I try to draw breath
but its caught, fast
in that same chest
now locked tight.
Is it too full of secrets now,
to close comfortably?
or is it too full of love now,
to be contained within a cage of ribs?
The heart and the life
that live within me,
its mine, yours,
no accident this world,
or the others
living in this heart.
