the human heart

oh the human heart
it grieves as it feels the pain
it wishes not to be deceived
by the momentary oblivion of the pain
that even heightens the grief
as soon as it is awaken.
it pierces right through and through
as it hits you with much strength,
you accept it with so much weakness.
yet it won't bless you with death,
but only so close to it.

oh how your heart wishes to rest
with a naive life
you don't feel you'll be gifted
with the death that you so long for.
