Favorite Quote:
"You must first be young and stupid to become old and wise."


Heart
Mine beats.
Yours beats.
All the same right?
Wrong…
Mine pumps for the girl in 4B the girl in apartment 4E’s battle with depression and whether or not she should skip dinner.
Mine pumps for the guy with the flat tire on the side of the rode without a spare or a charge on his phone.
Mine pumps for the little boy sitting on a park bench with tears filling his eyes, handing out flyers that say “lost puppy, please help.”
Mines pumps for everyone, but mine.

I'm the type of person who cares more about other people then myself. I put others before me and this poem was inspired by one word, which happened to be "heart"
