The Heart Muscle
The heart is a muscle
Its not meant to be protected
Or neglected
But used
Even if at times abused
The heart is a muscle
Left alone, will atrophy
Shrinking to a degree
Wasting away
Left to decay
So let the Love in
Let it begin
To strengthen
You from within
Muscles get injured
Muscles will heal
You sometimes
Have to be torn down
To remember how to feel
So True Romantics
Of this world...
Let what's possible
Become unfurled
A heart is a muscle
To be
Torn
Battered
And Bruised
To leave it alone
Is unexcused
