my heart tugs
but I'm tugging back
I admit I'm impressed
with its stamina
tenacity
scope
hope
strength
stubbornness
but it's for naught
in that place now
no quitter
no matter
the price
I tried
I cried
a part of me
died
I've prayed
every which way
to Sunday
every day
for my heart to
get a grip
and let go and
let the sun
set on it.
