Hearts on sleeves often get squeezed
Sometimes crushed unknowingly
Rubbed the wrong way
By the words people say
But lack of words
Can do the same.
So what do you do
With a silly soft heart?
It’s better soft boiled
Than stubbornly hard…

Egg metaphors? Really? A soft boiled heart? Really? That came out of left field. Don’t get me started on brains… Mine would be fried.

Beautiful poem Tina.A soft heart can make life more painful sometimes, but a hard heart is so much worse to live with.

I bet it is. A hard heart would make your world a whole lot smaller and intolerable.
