My heart

My heart...
Is so very fragile.
Please be gentle with it,
Be gentle with me.
It doesn't take much pain, much hurt,
To break me,
To shatter my heart into pieces.
I feel things so strongly, and for so long,
I never forget the things that cause me pain,
Keep them in my heart forever.
I'm too emotional sometimes, that's the trouble,
I fall apart too easily when things go wrong,
Someone says one thing, does one thing,
And away I go, my heart bleeding,
Hurting me forever more.
Fragility.
My heart knows the meaning only too well,
As do I...
