I had a snatch of a few words for a poem last night in my Tinnitus bed

 so here's what I can remember

I'll finish in the morning, wednesday  4th dec If

I cannot get it on the page now

Believe my Heart not my Words (c)

by Michael Casey

How do I explain

How did I fail

How did I mess it up

I meant to do it right

I meant not to give in

I meant to do it right

Can you forgive me in the dark of the night

Promises made and words said

Things written down on a list so I wouldn't forget them

But I was sidetracked by life by living

By Temptations big and small

Its easy to get distracted

Life is full of things to do

But in my heart I meant to be true and honest to you

To what I said I'd do ,  to how I would behave

But Life and Temptation came a calling

Why am I always falling

Should I give up, it's far easier

Everybody just does not bother

So I'm one of a crowd 

I'm one person hiding in a crowd of indifference

Why should I talk to you

I'm not my dad

I'm not my mother

I'm not my sister

I'm not my brother

I'm the weak fat one with all the diseases

In my heart I promise to

But the reality is I don't

Not as much as I want to

Please Mary let me remember to Pray

As I should, and read my heart

through my pains, and accept

the few words I do say, are heart felt

So read my heart

And maybe my prayers will do

Maybe even be enough to save the world from itself

As though the words are mangled just like me

My heart I give in all sincerity 

Grant us Peace, Immaculate Heart of Mary

different to what I had in my head, but from my heart, my quadruple heart bypassed
