A Simple Heart
Some believe life to be a dream a passing image
A scene full of color, smiles, tears and joy
As we know, each day brings a different feeling, and memories
You see there came a day when I knew my heart to be alive
It all began with our eyes, they met and like glue they would not part
I sat to wonder of my insecurities, for the world is an unfair judge
Least my soul had no image, and my voice no shape or form
When she heard me speak, the tone of my voice, it pierced her heart
And she for once bleed emotion, and her heart too rejoiced
Alas I felt as if I were to never be alone again
If I spoke, I spoke of her and how she brought color unto my life
All faded when she was near, my life was carefree
I sang to my self like I hadnt before, I was in love
I was like the sky who married the clouds
Like the moon who married the sun and the stars their offspring
So slow I learned to cope with what I felt
A heart so fragile, so soon it broke
Her soul looked but didn't see, and slowly she turned from me
My nights became eternal, and the pain grew from with in
She was gone, and I a foolish poet with a shattered mind
My heart did heal, and strength a new
Past my history I love today, I won't forget
Facts of love, our hearts are simple
