Heart of glass

Heart out of glass, my dear. 
Don't give it to anyone, don't go near.
Humans like to break things. 
I don't want you to be destroyed, like a useless vase. 

Your heart must bloom like flowers. 
Your soul must glow like the rainbows colours. 
I don't want you to ache.
Don't want you to break. 
You're too much worth for a heartbreak. 
Your heartbeat must go on, 
with the rhythm of life. 

And I know, life has risks. 
But only take the risk, 
if you promise me you won't let anyone break the vase. 
Your vase of love, 
Your vase of life, 
the vase of the kindest soul I will ever know in my life. 

Never plan to leave me, please. 
It's an honour to protect your heart of glass, your vase I have to keep safe. 

Your heart of glass, clear as the sky without clouds, as the ocean, as the space, without any sound. 
You're open like a book, clear to see trough - 
but don't let any destroyer near you.
