This Broken Heart

This broken heart reaches for something, but it will just keep reaching And it breaks even more the farther it wanders, yet it's still so set on meeting Another one. it tries so hard to keep itself together Because it knows i can't possibly do any better It knows that I've been crying a lot By how my throat feels as tight as a knot And it knows that I'm NOT ok. The pain gets worse, my world turns grey And if it could speak and i could hear it, it wouldn't really know what to say Except to tell me that it knows EXACTLY how i feel And the way we hurt is so unreal What we've experienced can ONLY work to make us stronger And help us hold on even longer. Because it would be a disaster for the both of us to break Life makes things complicated, and sometimes this life can be so much to take But we're one in the same, my heart and me; me and my heart It would tell me not to worry, that we're both smart That time heals EVERYTHING and the unseen No matter how impossible it all may seem
