I wish you would realize
The effect you can have
The pain I see in the faces
Of lovers you have infused
With your poison
Only to walk calmly away, not glancing back
As they writhe in agony
The pain I now share
The pain I promised myself I would never
Allow you to inflict upon me

You are not heartless
You are not evil
But oh how unaware you are of how easily shattered
The hearts you juggle are
As I watched the hearts drop from your hands
One by one
And become broken beyond repair
I hardened my own
For I knew the time would come when it would
Land in your hands
And you would toss it about
Stuff it in your pocket
And forget it was there
