and so it goes with the heart

by Andrea O'Connell

Yes.

And so it goes when a heart

is locked,

or numb,

or frozen,

or simply ignores

its hunger

preferring instead to

stay asleep

quiet and

alone

a forced sanctuary

to keep out

all

light and air and love and

me.

    Oh thank you so much…. it’s funny, this is just a piece of clip art, but when I saw the picture – the poem wrote itself….

    Thank you again so much.
