About the Poem

If you love life and helping people, then you will love to share your heart. I wrote this poem on my way to work one day and it hit me so hard that I had to pull over and stop. I us my recorder when writing a poem so I don't miss the thought when I began to type it... Enjoy

If I Only Had Two Hearts

If only I had to hearts, it will hold a lot of love
For that poor boy or girl, who lives in the street
For that sad old woman, I saw down in the deep
And for that hungry elderly man, who has no one to share
His last piece of stale bread, soar milk and rotten pare
If I only had two hearts

If I could pump the blood from my heart and give it to that dying child
If I could hold deep within my chest, that teenager girl who is running wild
If I could educated that sista who don't seem to have it all
If I only had two hearts, I could give the world that final call

Scars from my teardrops that stained my wedding gown
The quietness in that death man's fragile sound
With the love of my well-being, and thoughts from my thrifty mind
If I only had two hearts, I will make the world unwind

If I only had two hearts, I would gladly give you one
A message from me to you, created by God's Son
If I only had two hearts
