I think I qualify as a living heart donor
My heart might like a new owner
My heart is still good for pumping blood
But instead of lub dub, it sounds more like thud thud
Here is what my massage therapist said
She said, "Your heart chakra is dead"
"Your capacity for love is gone."
"Your emotional bank account is overdrawn."
So if I'm not using all of my heart
Give it to someone who needs a spare part
It's a good heart with lots of love to give
It has lots of ticks on it with many more years to live
So if you want this old heart of mine
Just call 555.9999
David Rose - Vietnam Veteran - Combat Medic
A collection of original poetry from a Vietnam War Veteran, David Rose, who is diagnosed with PTSD by the Veterans Administration. Some of these poems are very personal and dark while others are lighter, but I wanted to make them available to the public as an educational tool to everyone who is interested. The poems are copyrighted, but can be used for any nonprofit reason with credits. It is my sincere wish that someone will find these heart-felt writings useful.
