Which Heart?

Which Heart?

Which heart are you? Do you even know,

That in-describable magic that makes you glow,

Is it all intact, maybe damaged but whole,

Is it lost to another, something they stole,

Is it a heart of Chalk, soft like sand,

Easily damaged or crushed in hand,

Seen by many and easy to trace,

But once its discovered, so quick to erase,

Or perhaps you have a Spiderweb heart,

That attracts so many from the very start,

You lure the souls so easily led,

Then you feast upon their heart instead,

The Barbed Wire heart offers some protection,

From cheaters and players, but not infection,

It offers some safety to hearts anew,

But it can pierce your own heart too,

A heart of Ice, so cold to touch,

Has already seen sorrow far too much,

But find another, then the cold bereft,

It melts once more until there's nothing left,

The heart of Stone, so hard and tough,

Has been damaged before, and treated rough,

Swing aย hammer of emotion at this heart,

Then even stone can fall apart,

Do you think you have a heart of glass,

Already in shards from a shattered past,

Or fragile, unbroken, surface scratched,

Just waiting to be smashed, then patched,

Some may hide a heart of Steel,

Devoid of love and unable to feel,

Once open, now shut, and wrapped for time,

This heart will never be yours or mine,

Finally the Candyfloss heart does beat,

Loved by many, so soft, so sweet,

And once you taste, you just want more,

Because of a feeling like never before,

These hearts beat within us, this much is true,

I know which heart I am, so which one are you?

This is wonderful Angel Fell. The flow is so well done that it leads one through the piece. When I reached the end I went back up and looked at the picture, thinking about your question... then realized I didn't have an answer lol. I'm not sure which heart I am, but I know which heart I want to be. Creative and very enjoyable hon. Blessings, Rebecca

I love this. It flows so beautifully and I was captivated from the image, thenย by the amazing words. It's perfectly put together and stays on track, which, for me, is hard to do in longer pieces, so I fully respect and admire those who can do this. Well done โค๏ธ
