Have you seen My Heart?

If anyone should happen to come across my heart,
please send it back to me, where it lies beating I have no clue
It certainly isn’t in the hands of the woman I love,
Hands beaming with purity and sincere compassion
It certainly does not live beneath my chest,
beating so strongly with joy as once before
In its place lies nothing but memories,
some dark, depressing and regretful recollections,
but some bright, unbelievable and happy times
Both my mind and body function day in day out
on memories that must be learned from and
others that keep a smile on my face, tokens of remembrance
that pump blood into my hands that I may feel,
blood into my feet so that I can take the next step
It isn’t easy living without a heart, this I have
come to realize with every passing moment
My heart is out there somewhere, and perhaps
maybe one day we will be reunited again.
