Shattered Pieces

The Golden Rule: treat others The way you want them to treat you How beautiful an idea That won't ever come true I think because I'd die for you Then, likewise you'd die for me But no matter how I am to you You'll be who you wanna be I can give you kindness You'll repay me with malice Then watch me cry & hurt for you As you stand aside, calloused My greatest gift I'll give to you My heart, safe in a box That you'll open without hesistance To crush it with your rocks And as you walk away from me I'll pick up the shattered pieces of my heart, my life--every bit of me The pain just never ceases
