Fluorescent Heart

It must be just as obvious
To everyone, they all must stare --
The way my poor fluorescent heart
Lights my translucent skin so fair.

I am trying, for the moment,
To mute my effervescent glow;
Last I tried, my filament went:
Connection broken, answer "no."

But if we get the chance, maybe
You'll try your bulb inside my heart
To see how well it beats in me.
I can't decide if this will thwart

The cycle: Light replacing light,
But I will soon know if I'm right.
