A Letter To My Heart

Dear Heart,

It is with trepidation that I write this. You see I heard that you were young when you came into my life and that you were not far away. Someone went to collect you, look at you and brought you back. You have remained anonymous until recently, just a heart.

But now you have a name after seeing what I suspect was your obituary. Your passing on April 2nd 2015 and my revival on April 3rd 2015 are too close to consider otherwise. Your name and character has given shape to what was just a heart. It means so much more being able to thank an identity for their gift. Your gift to me needs taking care of to preserve your memory and my future,.

I remember at first we fought like hell. I was no longer immune to your intrusion and you tried desperately to reject me. We had no way out. Divorce was not an option. A ‘peace’maker served as an arbitrator. We persevered reaching a happy working relationship. We now chat regularly about what’s going on, making plans for the future.

Yours in bond,

Mark
