Divided Hearts

A heart that is divided

Can not stand anymore

Than a house can

And yet, when things are

tough, it is expected to.



When you love one person

And find another,

Then what is expected of you,

Is to drop the other.

But what if you don't want to?



Divided hearts

Are like divided minds and

divided houses.

Yet, they will fall just the

Same, because of their division.



If love and hearts, life and limb

Can be split and seperate

Then will not the stress be great

on who is being split?

Or is it impossible?



Is it impossible that division of love

Can not happen? That only one can have the love?

Is it impossible to live with your heart divided

Or would you go crazy from deciding?

It has been so, and will be so in the future too...
