My Dearest Heart.....

Dear Heart,

Please forgive me for all the turmoil you feel right now, I take full responsibility for ever putting you in the position of having to mend in the first place. I have a tendency to get distracted by all the responsibilities that are in my life. I am taxed with the obligation of remembering everything and forgetting nothing but how is that even a possible job to accomplish? I find my space gets cluttered with all the memories and the facts filed away up here and makes me seem flaky at times or just not there for you, BUT, when you truly need me I drop everything and rush to your side.  Even though I am the keeper of all the memories;  you, my friend, are the keeper of all the feelings that occur when when these memories happen.  That seems like an extremely daunting job that would exhaust anyone!!  The pressure you must feel, no wonder you break sometimes.  The idea of feeling all the emotions over and over again, WOW, how strong you must be to endure it all.  Strong enough to feel the hurt and at the same token, strong enough to forgive it too.  I wish I could allow myself the  freedom to follow wherever you lead.  I know that you just long for a hug and the knowledge that there is just someone who GETS you.  Well, I get you love.  You, Keeper of all things mushy; you, Siren of Scars; you, Queen of Emotional Baggage; you, Ruler of Ignorant Bliss...I will forever be your sidekick in awe of your strength and depth.  So, don't feel so alone in this madness of a journey.  I know you've been banged up but never allow those that discard you to quench your desire to be loved fully, openly, and freely because love shouldn't cost you...it should only make you stronger!!  Smooches, my love. 
Signed
Your Mind, (your forever faithful friend)
