Message From Your Heart

.

Don't break me, I bruise easily

The source of both your love and misery

.

I am steady, beating endlessly

While you are dozing, dreaming pretty things

Lovely things

.

I don't work for free

Please take care of me

.

This is a message from your heart

Your most devoted body part

Taking blood and making art

This is a message from your heart

Pounding away into the dark

You could thank me for a start

This is a message from your heart

.

Don't hurt me, I bleed constantly

My efforts leave me but flow back swiftly

.

My rhythm, soothing, like raindrops steady

On foggy windows when you gaze outwardly

Peacefully

.

I don't work for free

Please take care of me

.

This is a message from your heart

Your most devoted body part

Taking blood and making art

This is a message from your heart

Pounding away into the dark

You could thank me for a start

This is a message from your heart

.

Every time you sleep

Every time you eat

Every time you laugh

Every time you cry

Every time you love

.

This is a message from your heart
