If you look up in Webster's Dictionary, The definition of the word "Heart," There are so many ways to define it, That I do not know where to start. A hollow muscular organ, Of animals vertebrate, That contracts and forces blood, To flow and circulate. A playing card marked With a stylized heart of red, The compact part of a leafy Rosette lettuce head. A game in which the object Is to avoid taking tricks, A generous disposition, I do not know which one to pick. The central or innermost part, One’s innermost character, The most vital part of something, Perhaps I should defer. All I know is that mine aches, Since I let her go. I feel my body has gone limp, My blood no longer flows. The playing card of red Now looks black as night. The leafy lettuce has now wilted, Oh what a terrible sight. Perhaps I should ask Mr. Webster To change what he's defined, For without her my vital, innermost part No longer wants to shine.
