Your Heart
Your heart is so big, but not so strong.
When did you first hear that something was wrong?
If a doctor has told you, you have only so long,
Disregard the diagnosis, as you would a broken song.
I don't know much about miracles today,
But I believe the collective consciousness of love,
Is powerful enough to move things in an angelic way.
Selfishly, I hope you are deemed enough time to stay,
Five more years with this world, before recycling day.
