untitled

Take me into your arms

Let me feel your last breath escaping your body

Just like this heart tries to escape my chest cavity

It wants to defy gravity

And float into skies to be kissed by stars

And absorb their shine

Because then it will be admired

It will be gazed upon by beings

Wishing for love

And it will shower down its tears

Because non loved it when it resided down here

It screams at night

It screams during the day

Be that as it may

It still yearns for love

But it fought against gravity

When it escaped this chest cavity

And now resides among the stars

Hoping its flames will be cherished

That people will write poems about it

Because when it was on earth they trampled it

Walked through muddy streets

Only to wipe their feet on it

A welcome mat too dirty

Now it only shows come because it is not well anymore

Because it has bleed out

But it still yearns for love so it shouts out come

To all strangers that profess to show it love
