The Outlines of a Broken Heart

As thr raindrops fall inside it's felt,trapped outside a woman's world as my heart begins to melt. A special queen of hearts I was dealt,from long distance she sends her help. Holding her picture deeply in her eyes I look,there's no joy in saying good-bye and love isn't lived by the book,my heart is trapped like a fish while my feelings are caught on a hook. Maybe what I need lies inside of me and I haven't found it yet. The obstacles in life has me surrounded. So many times they told me to be strong,but when I look for their faces they are gone. Where is the woman that brings me home ? Now that I'm alone it's hard to hold on. I feel persucuted for my rights more than my wrongs;joy came from a love song,pain has torn my chest apart. So I write compassionate thoughts to give you the outline of a broken heart.
