I Want a Heart

I want a brave heart
How's that for a start
Not the one that’s anxiety ridden
Whose emotions are always buried and hidden
I want a daring heart
One that knows what it wants from the very start
Not the one that’s confused between how it feels and how it might feel
Because clearly it’s still on its way to heal
I want a calm heart
The kind that doesn’t always race off the charts
One that holds peace, not lies in pieces
One that doesn’t worry about the unforeseen injuries
I want a big heart
That somehow manages to add every emotion to the cart
The one that’s ready to fall apart
And then strong enough for a restart
I want a smart heart
That knows when to be apart
Apart from everything that made it hurt
Before it turns into dirt
I want a heart that leads, the one that bleeds, the one that feels
Ah yes, unapologetically feels
I want all of this, to try and miss
To simply experience the bliss
To dive deep into the abyss
To trust even when something feels amiss
But do such kinds of hearts even exist?
The ones that don’t resist
The ones that insist
The kind that let uncertainty and calmness coexist
I want a heart that believes
I want a heart that lives
I want a heart
How’s that for a start?
