Thoughts of the heart

It doesn't always go where it ought to,
the heart.
It's with her too often -
the unknown entity.

The heart calls and
she does not come,
nor should she,
it calls nonetheless.

The thoughts of her
outnumber the moments with her
by a hundred to one,
or is it a thousand now?

More thought than woman,
she occupies the heart
completely,
unable to disappoint.

The kindness in her eyes,
was all that was required
and the heart,
stopped.
