my heart lay there
between us
e x p o s e d
and honest
tired of the pretending
its beat was slow and heavy
tenderly
you picked me up
and placed me back in my still chest
you took my hands in yours
and ever so gently
pulled me to you
back to your warmth
you gave me back my heart
and made me whole again
so i can love you properly
-what can i say but thank you
