Dear Girl

Dear, Girl

Guard your heart
Don't give it away so easily
To any man who see's your beauty
You only have one
So keep it close
Keep it near
If you're not careful
It will disappear
For in the hands of another
It will transform to glass
If dropped it will shatter
And make a big mess
Picking up the pieces
Is the hardest part
Mending them back together
All alone in the dark
They'll never fit back together 
Like they once did
A tattered little heart
Is what you'll have left
So keep it locked up
And throw away the key
The one who finds it
Will truly make you happy

Love, Girl with a tattered little heart
