sorry for my heart
it's been through a lot
it's hanging on by a thread
and sometimes
it starts to slip
and when it does
it acts out
sorry for my heart
because it loved him
and was never
ever
fully yours
sorry for my heart
it is broken and bruised
sometimes it needs a little bit of help
but sometimes it beats on its own
sorry for my heart
for stealing yours
i told it not to
but it doesn't listen to me
sorry for my heart
for treating you the way i did
i hope you know
it wasn't my choice
sorry for my heart
you deserve better
i know you can't help your choices
i know you meant it when you said you loved her
and when you said you loved him too
sorry for my heart
for apologizing for your feelings
you should never be treated like that
sorry for my heart
you pump the blood through my veins
and make love flow through my bones
you should never have to apologize
and i realize that now
sorry for my heart
i've had it reserved for you for a while
i have ignored you for far too long
and handed you out to people who didn't deserve your power
from now on i'll keep you in my chest
close to me forever
until the day i find someone who is deserving of you one-hundred percent
but for now
i'm sorry, my heart
i love you,
so i guess that means you love yourself
and that is worth more than all of the love of everyone who has ever loved you.
thank you.
