A Heart of Two Colours

To have a soft heart, they say,
Is a blessing from God.
To have a soft heart, they say,
Is a gift to be used wisely.
To have a soft heart, they say,
Is something to be proud of. 

But I say no...

{Found Via Google}

To have a soft heart, I say,
Is a curse from a fallen world.
To have a soft heart, I say,
Is to have an imperfect belonging.
To have a soft heart, I say,
Is something no one should desire. 

Because...

{Found Via Google}

A soft heart feels too much.
A soft heart listens too much.

A soft heart is wounded too often.
A soft heart is broken too often. 

So I dream of a heart of stone. 

But they say no...

{Found Via Google}

To have a stone heart, they say,
Is to feel nothing, at all
To have a stone heart, they say,
Is to never experience joy, ever.
To have a stone heart, they say,
Is to dwell without love, eternally.

All true.

So I will change my dream.

{Found Via Google}

I will long for a heart that is strong enough to handle both worlds.

A heart that can feel:
Love, and hate.
Joy, and sorrow.
Peace, and war.
Hope, and despair.

I will teach my heart how to be broken, and how to heal.
I will teach my heart how to be weak, and how to grow strong.
I will teach my heart how to love, and how to let go.

Because...

{Found Via Google}

I have learned,
That in this world,
Everything in moderation,
Is the key to survival.

And my heart will survive...
And thrive...
And be triumphant...

It will be...
A Heart of Two Colours. ♥
