Broken Hearts Destroy

A broken heart easily destroys
The very essence of any man
Nothing depletes him any faster 
Then what a heartbreak can 

It will waste no time stealing 
Everything a man has to give 
Including his pride and dignity 
And even worse his will to live 

His friends will grow distant 
Not because of his frown 
But because they are scared 
That he will drag them down 

When he has nothing left 
And is labeled as a bum
Even his family creates space 
Ashamed of what he's become 

The one's he thought cared
They no longer come around 
He will be lost in his own life 
Wishing that he will be found 

He's filled with pain and misery 
His life becomes a living hell
And nothing he does will help 
Him escape heartbreaks spell
