The Heart

The heart is a ticking time bomb Ready to explode It's weak when someone breaks it The heart shatters into pieces Never fitting together The same way twice The heart yearns for comfort The heart sets out young, but Grows old looking for love Love that can heal Any broken and shattered heart
