Heart
The suffering, the pain, it’s over now
All that is left is a pounding heart trying to heal and move on
A heart that fought so hard to stay alive
A heart that held on until the last minute the last goodbye
Thumping, beating, pulsing
The pain, the suffering made the heart strong
So strong that it grew a thick wall
A wall that cannot be broken
A wall that no longer yearns and prays for anybody’s love
Except that of its own
A heart that no longer feels pain or suffering

I was touched by this poem too.
Though the wall cannot be broken, I hope in time it will fall away.
