do it again

I've lost my heart, have you seen it?
Fumbled between the butter fingers of a boy I once loved.
Down,
           Down it fell,
Into an ocean of long lost love,
Too weak to swim against the tide,
Until it's washed up and spluttering on my doorstep,
Begging to take its place in my empty chest once more,
And whispering,
Like all the hopeless dreamers whisper,

"Let's do it all again."
