Feed your heart

♥ The night has a thousand eyes, 
And the day but one;
Yet the light of the bright world dies
With the dying sun.
The mind has a thousand eyes,
And the heart but one;
Yet the light of a whole life dies
When love is gone.
by Francis William Bourdillon
♥ Wake up and feed your heart with love and share the love you received.
