beatinghearts

 

I always like to write my thoughts out on paper first because it makes them seem more real.

 



 

 

when you take an anatomy class the teacher teaches you how the human heart works. how it beats like a million times a day and how it connects to every part of you and lets you breathe and move and feel and cry and bleed.

hearts are real


 

and maybe that's when people are in love they say

"you have my heart"

 

 

but when im with you the only beat I notice is silence




 

and the blood doesn't fill my veins till I bleed like they used to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

hearts are strong but mine can only hold on for so much longer

 

 

 

 

 

because a heart only lasts one lifetime and im running on empty....

 

 

 

maybe its time to take a trip to the gas station. id rather have gas than nothing at all.

 

 





 

 to feel my pulse thrive again

and remember what it feels like when your sixteen and his lips are interlocked with yours

 


 

 

cause hearts only beat for one lifetime

 

 

 

                                                                                             and im running on empty
