Broken Heart

What do you do with a heart that's been broken Too many times to repair For truly, there are no words to be spoken To make it want to care And how do you learn to trust again When trust is merely a lie Is there another way to begin Or is it too much to try Is it okay to merely be alone And truly forsaken love When the fairytale is really gone And cold truth all you know of Yet somewhere deep inside you hides The wishful spark of romance A torment that never subsides And whispers there's always a chance And the cruelest part of this spark Is the hope it keeps alive For what if love's not a lark And something for to strive What then if you should happen to find That one you've been waiting for And discover a truth truly unkind-- That you've already closed the door.
