State of the Heart Museum


Welcome to the State of the Heart Museum.
At this point I will request you to kindly switch off your brains or put it on silent mode.
Be attentive to the matters of the heart and keep up with the group.

On the left you will find a shrine
of all the people lost, hard to find,
memories divine.
To the right you will see,
the people whom Death held in captivity.
Souls taken away too soon,
effects of which are both curse and boon.
As we move ahead you will see,
letters, gifts and keepsakes held dear,
of loved ones, far and near.
Feel free to peruse them after the tour,
they are here to touch and not just for show.
Come a few feet ahead and notice this bunch,
a rare group of souls called 'Family',
they're the persistent ones.
Cause an uproar in all matters of the heart,
but always turn out to be right.
They've been here through it all,
every joy, sorrow, darkness and light.
Rich in wisdom, they've come a long way,
and for the sake of this heart, they will always stay.
To your right now, what you see,
is Crush Cacaphony.
Souls that are longed for, but not quite attained,
souls responsible for blush stains.
Take a look at your left and gaze upon
the lovers and their stories, long.
notice the fine line between the ones that stayed
and the ones that didn't belong.
And right beside it, is what we call
the Room of Words.
You will find them all categorized,
Things that were said,
Things that were left unspoken,
Things that make you,
and things that leave you broken.
and then the quotes and philosophies to live by,
and a special section of words that led to cries.
Don't miss the framed, sparkling phrase
"One large pepperoni pizza, please."
The room to your left belongs to Mr.Right,
our CEO and heartthrob
current lover, toughest job.
He's doing alright for now,
one wrong move and the floor beneath us will give way.
Trust me, you do not wanna experience heart-quake.
We alone know what it took to rebuild this place,
and to get used to not seeing our last CEO's face.
Come along now, and have a look,
at fictional characters, movies and books.
Don't be surprised, you'll find them all here
fairies, aliens, good guys and crooks.
I shall leave you now,
to browse the rest of the museum on your own.
Make sure you visit the music lounge,
and offer solace to the friend-zone.

That's all from me, your tour guide today
signing off, have a good day!
