Somebody already broke my Heart
Somebody already broke my heart.
So, try as you may
You won’t even leave as much as a crack.
An Angel
or, I believed that was what he was -
came across my life
and managed to pick it up
for a little while.
He held it up to the sun,
held it to the light
and made me realize
how beautiful it can be
and I remembered what it was
what I have been deprived of.
Now, all I know,
all I can think of
and ever will remember
is the pain and confusion
that comes after;
And the loss of control
and the emptiness of all decent senses
made me careful and cautious........
..........but even heartless.
