Harmless Heart
There is no place for a harmless heart to hide
Like bruises on her skin the pain is on the outside
No refuge for the shadows within her eyes
No mask could ever be a fitting disguise
Where can a homeless heart go
Should it sit in the gutter, be on show
There should be a haven safe from further pain
When tears like raindrops fall to mirror flooding rain
Harmless or homeless the heart is lost in space
For there is no soft and warm welcoming place
The only place that is safe and true
Is the strength and fire within you
