Hello Beaten Heart


Hello my heart

 

 

You cry often

Why do you feel sad?

I wish you would tell me what’s wrong

It’s been a year

Yet I don’t hear of Happiness

Does she still live with you?

I haven’t heard Her laughter

I haven’t seen the beauty She holds

I enjoyed the company of Her.

Who is this person you opened your doors to?

She is a stranger I didn’t know you spoke to.

You deserve more than this.

I hate to see you hurting.

You call her Depression?

What has She done for you?

Please my heart,

come back to me.

My arms are open,

I will take you away.

 

 

Sincerely,

Soul.
