I'm your heart

I agree with you.

I dwell with you.

I control your ideas.

I am able to dominate you.

What exactly am I?

I'm your heart.

I can become clogged.

I might be broken.

I can be handed away.

without physically removing me.

What exactly am I?

I'm your heart.

Me

Everything about me

My pulse

My non-stop movement

I move like a second on a clock.

I will eventually cease.

It will mean the end of you.

the end of your life in the world.

I have your life.

I'm incredibly significant.

I am capable of catching your breath.

Only when I am tired of moving.

That's who I am.

I live inside you.

With you, I can go anywhere.

I'm here now.

In you,

I am your heart.
