I am here for Friends

About Me

0o888888888888888888888888o0I have wracked open my chest and torn from it my heart. Upon gently placing it on my head, it sewed itself a new start.From the hole flew out a bird. Blue and young but wise, which flew straight to the moon, no matter its frailty or size.Soon my heart was beating again, right on top my head. Laid out across for all to see. My courage, love and dread.My little bird, she waits for me, for the day my soul will join her. The loneliness inside my heart has only made her bolder.Now my head and heart are one. My work in life is born anew. The daily distractions meaningless, only urgent thoughts of what to do.And so my little bird says 'Courage, Perseverance and Love' to me. and the love in my heart beats steadily, Pouring into my head, my reason to be.
