The flame

A place for intellectuality and self expression

Cardia



The body is strong
The mind is stronger
And the heart stronger still
The heart knows what others do not know
It sees what others do not see
It feels what others do not feel
But in its strength it realizes it is weak
It is strong enough to know that it can be broken
But in its broken state somehow the heart still knows
It still sees
It still feels
Even when shattered to pieces
Ever shard keeps feeling
For when the body is beaten and broken it will soon shut down
When the mind is crushed it becomes scattered and no longer functional
But when a heart is dropped
When it is broken and torn
It still reaches out
It still feels
It tries to pick itself back up
It tries to put a million pieces back together
The heart knows something I do not
It sees something I can’t see
For how could it ever put a million pieces back together
Why does it keep feeling
Why does it keep hurting
The strength of a heart is unforeseen
When everything falls around it
When it falls itself
How does it find the strength to take the entire force of the fall
The enduring pain
The constant agony
A heart in its weakness is strong
And in its strength is weak
It is forever
