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.
