Poetry

Keep It from Beating

Staring at the vastness of nowhere
Silent tears from the hearts are
Swiftly making their way to the
Windows of the soul.

Mind can be amazing at times but
mostly overpowered by the heart
No matter how painful
It keeps on beating.

If only everything can be
thrown in a glance
disappear into oblivion and
lost in the wilderness.

Sometimes acceptance will
make everything easier
Let the memories keep you alive
No matter how painful.

Just keep your heart beating

Even if it takes a lifetime and beyond.
