do all feel this way?
life, poetry
do all feel this way
when their heart
is swallowed
by another?
do all hope and pray
that their helpless ways
will bring two hearts
together?
do all try to fare the torrid weather
and strive to swim to the gleaming
shores glimpsed while dreaming?
why does the heart wrench itself free
and let the pain seep in through my knees?
why does hope flail it's weakening arms
and grasp at hints only to fall back in alarm?
why can't the heart be satisfied with it's lot
and not long for that which is not easily sought?
