Heart Strings
As I slowly untie the string
That connects your heart with mine
I reminisce about the story
That once was you and I
I remember on the good days
I remember all the bad
I remember being happy
And it made me really mad
For smiles were so fleeting
Mostly tears is what I had
I realize that love
Is not a perfect thing
But I can’t believe that heartache
Is all you thought to bring
I know now that your love
Was really never there
For one-sided love
Never gets you anywhere
The circle is now broken
And I know I’ll be just fine
As I let go of the string
That once connected your heart with mine
