Do Hearts Feel Like Mine?

Do Hearts Feel Like Mine?

Do hearts feel like mine?

When the world turns in the sunshine,
When the stars burn in the moonrise,
When everything is all right,
Do hearts feel like mine?

Hearts feel like mine,
When the walls hit the ground,
When the smoke rolls around,
When the flames burn us down,
Hearts feel like mine,
When the terror is so near,
When our hearts fall to fear,
When the hatred is so clear,
Hearts feel like mine,

Do hearts feel like mine?

When flowers blossom wildly,
When the weather greets us mildly,
When Mother Nature’s smiling,
Do hearts feel like mine?

Hearts feel like mine,
When dark clouds start forming,
When skies turn to storming,
When thunder echoes warning,
Hearts feel like mine,
When rain falls like anger,
When lightening poses danger,
When peril is no stranger.
Hearts feel like mine,

Do hearts feel like mine?

When church bells clap out ringing,
When children join in singing,
When innocence is clinging,
Do hearts feel like mine?

Hearts feel like mine,
When desperation enters,
When serenity often splinters,
When summer feels like winter,
Hearts feel like mine,
When tragedy befalls us,
When society is lawless,
When honor loses all trust,
Hearts feel like mine,

Do hearts feel like mine?

When the world turns in the sunshine,
When the stars burn in the moonrise,
When everything is all right,
Do hearts feel like mine?

    When desperation enters,
    When serenity often splinters,

    Have you tried submitting to everyday poets? I bet they'd dig your work.
