Imagine my heart

Author: Caleb David Duku

Dedicated to David Duku

Imagine my heart was filled to the brim,

With pain which only you could trim.

Imagine it wailed and cried out blood,

Which repeatedly caused your eyes to flood.

Imagine that you and I were one,

And then my heart wholesome becomes.

Imagine that you and I were fools,

And this would cause my heart beat anew,

Imagine my heart,

Imagine my heart.

Imagine my heart was yours for life,

And that it would steer you clear of strife.

Imagine it sang and called for you,

And all you did was call out too.

Not run or hop

Or skip or jump

To the steady beat that my heart pumps.

Imagine my heart,

Imagine my heart.

Imagine my heart was a blood red diamond,

And you locket shaped it into an almond,

And bit

And chewed without remorse,

Until upon your lips it bled its course.

Imagine it froze for a minute or two,

And only you revive it could.

Imagine my heart,

Imagine my heart.

Imagine my heart was a rose to thee,

And trod upon it you did gracefully.

Imagine that the pace at which it beats,

Was doubled when I did hear your feet.

Not when your face I saw,

Or your sweet lips taste.

Imagine my heart,

Imagine my heart.
