It’s Not Easy Being An Open Heart

By

From
the depths
of her
fiery soul
–to
love
madly,
is all
she
knows.

It’s not
easy
being
an
open heart
— fear
ego
tries to
tear you
apart.

But afraid
you
must
not be
— love
say
and
mean
the words
whole-heartedly.

There’s no
such thing
as loving
–too hard
too often
too fast
–because
my love
your time
here
will not
last.
