Heart
You hurt me literally and figuratively, I will crumble.
I sustain life in humanity physically and emotionally.
If I stop working mankind would cease to exist.
Keep me healthy and I will flourish.
Treat me with care and I will bless you.
Try to break me and you will suffer.
The connection between us will fail.
You will be physically and emotionally scarred.
It will take a while to fix me.
But if you try, I will try also.
Time will not be your friend.
So please hurry, so I can help you.
Don't lose faith in me.
For if you do, you lose faith in yourself.
I am talking to you, through you.
Please listen, I know what I'm talking about.
I am your friend, I am your life, I am your heart.
