Heart
Ripped from my chest, exposed once again,
my heart lying wounded, love I can't feign.
A new knife wound opened, through scars that have healed,
bleeding and screaming, the pain is revealed.
Wanting to run, pretend it's not real,
bury the hurt, loves lost it's appeal.
Knowing I can't, been through it before,
wanting to die, just shut this damn door.
I have to walk through it, I know it for me,
the light from the cracks, won't let me be.
The anguish I'm feeling, I know will subside,
love conquers all, I know it inside.
Keep slogging along, with my chin up high,
this ache and despair, I know it will die

her sweet song of laughter
