WHAT'S LESS PAINFUL

Innocently, earnestly she asked me this, a despaired teenager;

What's more painful, a damaged heart or a broken one ???

I had an answer not. We only treated physical problems.

But her question  disturb me did; n sent me thinking...

Indeed, I thought, a broken heart would trouble someone more !!!

Physical heart problems in most cases have some cure;

Medical, surgical or plasties could help them, to an extent.

A broken heart, had no cure, that I could ever think of !!!

So agreed I with her, n said, "our medical team has remedy none."

She rightly said, "patients wish to live, whereas a broken heart wishes to life shun."

This argument, she downright won.
