There is a heart it beats.

There is a heart
it beats
and pushes
it does its work
forced by the boss
that is often over thought
compressed within a prison of bone
it hurts as it expands
it can’t
taking in information
it rids of it
words shredded
as others retained
the truth isn’t
because the brain
it takes in
and lets out
retaining everything
would explode it
trying to remember an old face
accelerating the age
it can’t compute properly
and the heart
it feels what the brain does
quicker it works
skip once
another beat
it’ll keep at it
it must
it has work to do
and friends to keep up
the lungs take in breath
it hurts
the brain says it hurts
it hurts to breathe
it hurts to beat
it just hurts
everything does now
to keep computing
managing everything
hurts.

Thanks for reading.
