A Broken Heart

A Broken Heart Treat me gently as I am still broken Eclipsed with grief Will daylight ever infiltrate my life again I'm struggling to find a rainbow after the rain Two people entwined for 20 years Two hearts still bound but one body's disappeared Treat me gently as I try and climb this mountain so steep I may seem strong by day but at night I still weep. Treat me gently as I am still broken Losing a love so deep that it kissed the molten rock that simmered in its core I won't let it melt even though it's future is no more Childhood sweethearts, every lasting memory I have included you An infinite void is now left How do I go on with out you Treat me gently I'm trying to live a normal life But I'm finding life hard living without my beloved wife I'm trying to keep on working But sleep is an untouchable wish I'm trying to keep on smiling But my energy has dwindled a bit I'm trying to keep on fighting but grey shadows the night does weave Please treat me gently I'm finding it hard to breathe
