A broken heart doesn't need to be filled in
or fixed by someone else
A broken heart needs to be strong
and dependable
to its owner:
The person it's beating for,
that's yourself.
You have to develop
and nurture it
To face what life brings to you
You will always be left with yourself
by the end of the day
When you close your eyes
and dream of certain weird scenarios
You are left with confusion
by the morning you open your eyes
When those dreams turn to nothing
but dust particles
You can feel loved in many ways
You don't need half a heart
You should stumble upon one
that is whole and full of life
Exchange your heart with that kind and let it comfort you
with every beat of excitement and sorrow
Go easy on yourself
every time you over do it
Let it remind you of who you are
to the person who has yours
It knows what you are capable of
And is also a good supporter
of your dreams and hardships
Then I'm damn sure you've got
your moments set for the unexpected things
You will have while you keep
that kind of heart,
While adoring its body features
for they are a form of beauty itself
Once you and your partner
commit throughout your lives
to be together
for anything
life brings
to both of you
