A Damaged Heart
How can you condemn a person,
Who has stolen the heart of a girl?
You can’t take tears as evidence to the authority,
Because they cannot prove anything in the world.
How do you testify to a crime,
A man who has hurt sincere feelings?
No one can see the scars and wounds created,
Because what cannot be seen, has no meaning.
How can you incarcerate a thief,
Who has taken away a girl’s biggest desire?
Anger cannot prove to a judge,
That he is culpable and be put on trial.
How can you accuse and imprison,
A man who took happiness from a soul?
Sadness and pain cannot help to testify...
A damaged heart cannot be easily fixed or restored.
