The One You Lose Your Heart To

Someday you’ll meet her. You’ll immediately know she’s different. The way she walks with humility. The way she dresses decently. The way her eyes shine with absolute innocence and sheer love. The way she doesn’t engage in vain talks and useless arguments. The way she carries herself with dignity. How she’s kind. Always so kind. How she’s almost always smiling and making others smile. Her goodness towards others will make you want to be good to her. She’ll change you without trying. Someday you’ll meet her and hopelessly fall in love.

To Not Break A Heart

A few kinds words
& a genuine smile
A silent presence
Just so she knows everything's alright
A little honest gesture
& a little care
Just so not everyone is in despair
It doesn't take too much
To not break a heart
Just a little effort
On your part
But people are selfish
& thoughtless & cruel
Don't give a thought
Before they change the rules
Now you don't know the game
Or how to play
& there on the bedroom floor
Your feelings lay
How much effort does it really take
To not break a heart, to promises not fake?

Making love an ugly affair
Giving them pain too hard to bear
People like you are to be blamed
For every heart that doesn't believe
For every scar that just doesn't heal
How much effort does it really take
To not break a heart, to not give them that ache?

No love was demanded
But you said love it was
So why now for her misery
Your love is the cause?
It's sad, it's terrible
How people break people
It's then you realize how helplessly you're crippled
& you're left alone to wonder
If you were just his amuse
It's sad, it's terrible
How love is the excuse
Every part of you hurts
But no sound is heard
That is how a heart breaks
That's how much it hurts...
