Break My Heart
Break my heart, here take it all, throw it against the wall and witness every bitter tear from my eyes that falls
Take this piece, the one that anticipates your call, take this one that believed in you and all your dreams, whether they were big or small
Take this piece that holds all the beautiful words that you spoke, take this piece that I gave to you through all the words that I once wrote
Take this piece, the one that holds your beautiful smile, and while you’re at it, take this one as well, that you made me feel so worthwhile
Take this piece that misses you every single, painful day, take this piece that longs to hear your voice and the sweet words that you say
Take this piece that listened as your heart spoke to mine, take this piece that is so enamored with you and wanted nothing but your time
Take this piece, the one that brought you back to life, I don’t need it anymore, I made the ultimate sacrifice
Take this piece that longs and aches for you to return, take this piece that still craves your love and yearns
Take this piece that I handed over to you so selflessly, and take this piece too, there is no longer a need for it to me
Take this piece that represents the dreams that were promised to me, take this piece that you made me feel like I was finally complete
Take this piece and remember me, remember the look of love for you in my eyes, take this piece that feels as though you did nothing to me but lie
Take this piece that wanted only you, take this piece that always knew deep down that could never be true
Take this piece and burn it because I don’t want it back, take this piece and do whatever you wish, you don’t even have to ask
Take this piece and miss me, just once the way that you said that you would, take this piece and never forget me, the way that you said you never could
Take this piece and bury it with the others as you have already done to the rest of me, take this piece and tell me again how much you wish that we could be
Take this piece and know that I would have loved you for all of time, take this piece and just once let my memory live in your mind
Take this piece and know that you broke me, there is nothing left, take this piece and please never think of me as a regret
Take this piece and go on with your life, take this piece and find the happiness that you seek in the broken corners of your mind
Take this piece and hold it in the palm of your hand, take this piece and just try to fathom what you meant to me, try to understand
Take this piece and know that my love was true, take this piece and let it fill you up inside, the way that I used to
Take this piece and just hold it for a while, take this piece and try to envision just one last time, my smile
Take this piece and know that this one still feels you within, take this piece and please just love me as you once did, make me breathe again
Take all these broken, shattered pieces and pick up the remains, and try to put them back together, show me that you’re ready for change
Take this broken heart and all the pieces scattered on the floor, and please love it as you once did, so long ago before.
