Of the Heart

A Poem by Jade Jasmine

My heart is beating
fast as a stallion
my breath is still
as a rock in the wind
What can this be
it's warm and frightening
Happening so quick
as a typhoon coming to shore
My body is numb
as a patient to a doctors fingers
It's strong and begging to be released
It's my love
shoving me your way
So strong and demanding
but the wall remains
Brick by brick
you tear me down
Breathing none
at the sight of your smile.
One day I hope to see you
Oh you, my fantasy love
One day I hope to see you
Oh my true love
