Poetry Book Heartstrings

“Maybe all the strings inside him broke.” - John GreenWe are often connected to other people by invisible strings. This helps us stay close to people we love and to keep going when we don’t have enough strength or when we are feeling low.Our strings are connected with our heart. Biologically the heart only pumps blood but poetically the heart is said to feel all the emotions. And these invisible strings weave through our lives forming a network that keeps us connected to those we cherish.In moments of despair they serve as lifelines preventing us from drifting too far into the vast expanse of isolation. When our strength wanes and the burdens of life become too heavy to bear alone these invisible threads gently tug reminding us that we are not alone.
