Hearts

It has been awhile...

--


I have been given so many hearts

How can I hold them?
With what do I mold them?

With love, and love alone.

I have been given so many hearts

How can I love them?
What if I break them?

What if I break my own?




I have been given so many hearts
with walls too high to scale;
Hidden inside their Pemberley pride
afraid to escape and fail

I have been given so many hearts
that are broken and cold within;
The eyes that cry for Love that would die
to save their selfish skin

I have been given so many hearts
with barricades up for war;
They angrily fire with an aching desire
for someone to break down the door

I have been given so many hearts 
with joys that can't be contained;
Seeking the Truth in honest pursuit
to live the life they've gained

I have been given so many hearts
journeying through this world;
Is there love enough? am I strong enough?
To sail this sea unfurled?

Excellent poem. It seems like it could work as lyrics for a song as well. :)
