Heart of the Matter

*Heart of the Matter*

She’s got something inside that beats within me.
It sure beats being alone…
And it beats you, too.
Sorry. :0(

Not trying to break your heart, but…hmm…how do I break this to you…

You don’t have a heart.

You’ve got a frame that could hang on the walls of horny teenagers and grown men; legs that rise like coconut pumps,
An ass built like a dump truck,
And a chest so big that it seems to have crushed your heart.
What a killer smile.
You take wicked pleasure from the pain that you cause…
but then I remembered the one trait that you lack:
Your heart’s broken.
Like a female dog who just doesn’t give a shit:
You’re housebroken.
See but this little lady is stronger than any amazon,
Between you and her it’s a no contest:
It’s her I’ve now placed bets on
Because
The heart doesn’t matter to a woman like you
&
The Heart of the Matter’s she’s more woman than you.
