A heart that listens

A heart that listens when not asked

Your gift to me as I unmask

The sordid details no one likes

Those that leave a scar on the psych.

 

You cannot continue as if

The soul did not shake like a leaf

To the revelation just made

How you see me after I strayed.

 

Though you stay quiet in exil

You hurry back after a while

Ask my vile heart to listen

It can be fixed what is broken.

 

The way you look at me, the same

Cannot grasp why you're not in flames

You insist I will understand

What love can endure when it's grand.
