Pieces of a Heart

We've all been hurt by the ones we love
and start to curse the one above
for the misfortunes and shame
we sit and we blame
while we cry and wait
for someone to create
the pieces we lost
of our hearts that our past loves tossed
but what if true love was not
our hearts being repaired by a knot
but our hearts rejoicing 
in rejoining 
the person we love each day
as we say
I love you
and the smile that grew when I say it too
