A broken heart
By definition
Cannot act
Based on ambition
And is doomed
To submission
Cursed to feel
Only contrition
But take this moment to listen
To what I have to say to you
A broken heart
Is seen as weak
And the future
Of it bleak
But every crack
Tear and streak
Leaves the owner
More unique
With only confidence to accrue
A broken heart
Once it’s mended
Can shake off
Why it pretended
To endure
What it expended
To keep it’s
Own needs unattended
In fear of losing what was good
A broken heart
Once fixed
Even with
Emotions mixed
And after all
Enemies nixed
By their lies
So transfixed
Is now free to do what it should

But take this moment to listen
To what I have to say to you

But every crack
Tear and streak
Leaves the owner

With only confidence to accrue
A broken heart
Once it’s mended

To keep it’s

In fear of losing what was good
A broken heart
Once fixed
Even with

And after all
Enemies nixed
By their lies
So transfixed
Is now free to do what it should
