Analysis of My body is my heart

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



You may have eaten my flesh
My heart is my flesh
You may have found my flesh sweet
My heart is my flesh
You may have grown strong on my flesh
My heart is my flesh
You may have felt my flesh heart beat
My heart is my flesh
You may have seen my flesh heart
My heart is my flesh
You may have made love to my flesh heart
My heart is my flesh
And I love you
