My Heart
I never was a girl who cared for love
A soul shattered at ten years of age
I just walked through life, never looking above
Two years after that tragic event,
Two new parents had I
One I loved within months, the other left me bent
I sealed away my heart
I never wanted it to be broken
I would never be torn apart
or sorrowed, or forgotten
I sealed away...my heart
Sweet sixteen, my first real crush
An angelic appearance never found in a brush
A poor choice of words, and he was gone
I wondered if I'd be forever done
Near eighteen, my first relationship
I thought it'd be a one way trip
The first kiss was oh so real!
Could anyone have a better deal?
I opened up my heart
Love was truely real
I wasn't torn apart
But still, I wanted to really seal...my heart
He wasn't the one
I wanted to be done
I said goodbye
And let my heart fly
I never thought I'd love again
The heartache was too much
Another painful break not for my gain
How much could the heart take? Not a bunch
A new town, a new state
Would the heart break ever end?
Then another lift, not rising hate
Could it help my heart mend?
He understands, like no one else, my pain
My heartache, my self, my soul
He holds me, makes me feel whole
My heart, once plugged, now begins to undrain
My heart is light and whispering to me
Whispering, 'Don't leave him, don't'
Unless he makes an unspiritual act
and ceases to care, I won't
I can't leave for he has my heart
Opened fully, not in part
We can never be apart
For I can never cast a dart
Through my heart
My heart
My soul
My heart
