Heart-searching

Where is my heart?
it lies in childhood,
sometimes,
playful, bright
regular and rhythmic
its cadence
freefalling.

I found my heart,
gave it away,
too easily,
quivering, questioning,
it's resting place,
temporary.

It stopped belonging,
anywhere,
painful, aching,
please apply love
maybe I'll find it,
again.

As the heart aches, a soul it makes.

as for me love never come by force ,and the important thing for me is the understanding so in case the man or the WOMAN want to make love from one side so that love will fail that is if there is love.

Oh, goodness, didn't it just. Oh where on where is Benjamin Frankel who made my 14 year old heart flutter, then broke it when I saw him kissing a girl at the bus station!

I sort of miss the kid back then, this gave me some pleasant and funny kind of memories, enjoyed muchly

Ain't it the truth. Before the chemical imbalance of puberty hits, we're all in Riley's shoes. Very well worded.
:-) Thanks, Nick
