Stolen Heart Poem by Andile Mthembu

Stolen Heart



Your enemies will to find the veins that lead to your heart,
Follow the track and eventually steal that heart.
Imagine your heart at your enemies hands,
That will probably put your life at its end.

But that's not the only way, isn't it?
Enemies and lovers alike are entwined in this serendipity.
That's why matters of the heart, not to do with mind, are insanity,
Pity, isn't it?

With unknown cold minds but you will feel their heat,
As they creep and crawl closer to your heartbeat.
Stepping close... Closer... And closer still,
Till you don't know the intentions that are good or ill.

You wont know who to trust,
You wont know the truth.
Till you finally donate that heart,
That's why i firstly donate to you my heart.

From now on my heart is in your hands,
I hope they are not slippery.
But equivalent of a refinery,
In short, you stand accused, of stealing my heart.

Very Beautiful poem. Very true said, until you don't give your heart, you will not know whom to trust or who is true to you. But as you said if you have given heart in enemies hand then they know how to slice your heart in pieces. Life is full of ups and down, don't know whom you have trusted and believed once can break your heart too later. conclusion with beautiful lines by accusing other...... In short, you stand accused, of stealing my heart...Wonderful thoughts...Loved the way you presented it. Keep writing..
