The Heart
for years you fumble with it,
unsure how best to handle it’s complexities.
as though it were some ancient mechanism
whose purpose is clear, but whose instructions
were lost long ago.
and then, someone comes along
and helps you decipher it’s profound codes.
it’s gears begin meshing once more,
surrendering their slumber so seamlessly
that you lose all sense of time.
