He left her old heart
though it had cringed door and crooked walls,
rusty roof and dusty floor,
it still sheltered him from the rain ,
and in seasons of pain ,
played a soft rhythm sound to calm his veins
so as he wandered through the earth
searching for a 'better' heart
he still can't forget the old one,
the one that made him the better man.
