You tinkered <br />with my heart <br /> <br />took it apart <br />put it back together <br /> <br />in 5 <br />seconds flat! <br /> <br />'Howzat! ' <br />you smiled. <br /> <br />A cog wheel <br />a too stretched spring <br />a nut...a bolt <br />a loose screw <br /> <br />remained! <br /> <br />'Don't worry...' <br />you grinned <br /> <br />'You don't need <br />those! ' <br /> <br />'It will worked just fine <br />minus a sadness or two <br />or a hurt here or there! ' <br /> <br />'Tip-top! ' <br />it chimed <br /> <br />like an emotional <br />clock. <br /> <br />'I hope you don't mind <br />but <br />I synchronised it with <br />mine! ' <br /> <br />'Tick! ' my heart cried. <br />'Tock! ' your heart replied.<br /><br />Dónall Dempsey<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/heart-mechanic/
