Where lies the heart?

You could see the eyes, the face, the body. But the heart can never be seen.

Where lies the heart?

Often, we remember people. We were told when young, to remember the face, the shapely contours unique to everyone. Lovers instinctively knew to memorize the body of their significant halves. The deaf read the motions, the blind listen - the handicapped feel.

Where lies the heart?

Let me tell you, looks matter not for no one is the same. Look not for the physical, for many years down the road, you'll forget how the person looks like. You'll forget the happy times you spent with the person, and the sad times shared as common damsels in distress.

The heart lies, just beside yours.

A person... remembers not the face, nor the memories... but the heart.

Because your brain can fail to recall them, but your heart would always know where someone dear to you is. You may never remember who the person was, never see that person again in your life...

But the heart.... their heart.... will forever lie right next to yours.
