Of faint hearts and swayed love...

A frail heart never won a fair lady they say...dut then again they often forget that once bitten, twice shy!

This is the story of a heart, hurt and a new start...

It is not the fact that I have a heart that troubles me,

It is the fact that my heart can indeed be hurt...

I do not have an issue with giving my heart to one worthy of it,

The issue I have is my heart being returned to me full of hurt...

At the end of the day investing into my heart's joy feels awesome,

But then someone else always has the knack to invest hurt and that's a kill joy!

Someone once said that building something takes time,

That destroying something takes a shorter time...

I have built on love and good and values in my heart many a times,

But often this is often overridden by the pain of hurt...

We are good at what we do out of our heart,

We suck at everything we do out of our hurt!

At the end of the day it becomes a struggle distinguishing between concepts

So do I give my heart and risk being hurt?

Or do I leave my heart out of it in a bid to save it from hurt?

The Dilemna involved is what I really have an issue with...

Yes tis good to say "Been there, Done that! Am still alive!"

But at the end of the day I may be still alive physically but dead emotionally!

So if you see me not following my heart,

It's because it is not the organ am supposed to be thinking with...

And if you see me not listening to my hurt,

Its because my mind has been critical in its assessment of involved parameters...

And am pretty okay with taking a plunge,

A plunge into a new start!

Therefore i choose life...I choose to start again...

Because my heart may hurt at times

But my heart will not stop beating till life expires out of it!

And till then, I can always start somewhere...albeit wiser and more mature!
