Melting Hearts

Melting hearts, wasting away
Drop by drop.
Melting hearts, falling like sand
Hope by hope.
The joys in life slowly dissolving,
The pain and suffering
Forcefully evolving.
Melting hearts, wasting away
Until there’s just one drop
Left.

BUT
If we all combine,
Part by part,
We can create a new heart.
Growing hearts, expanding today
Drop by drop.
Growing hearts, spreading like sand
Hope by hope.
The joys in life are coming back,
The pain and suffering
Is what our hearts lack.
Growing hearts, expanding today
Until it has all grown
Back.
