How Do You Mend A Broken Heart

How Do You Mend A Broken Heart * I stand by your grave Hands clasped before me My breathing shallow My legs unsteady I summon every Ounce of strength To keep from falling * All the days to come Without you All the nights to come Without you How will my heart Endure your loss * In hospice We reminisced You were comforted By the memories Of our time together You were proud of our Rip-roaring compatibility And our never going To bed angry * You held my hand And said Fall in love again * My smile was faint I said No woman is interested In a man with a broken heart * With a mischievous smile You said She is When she knows She is the one Who can mend it. *
