Surviving Heartbreak

A Love Not Over Yet

And if one day,

Maybe in a week, a month, or even a year,

When your heart is ready to love again, 

Please, fall in love with me.

I promise to cradle your heart gently,

To hold it with hands that have learned from mistakes.

I will help you heal each wound left by lovers past,

Mending every scar with tenderness

That reaches the depths of your soul.

I will protect your heart as fiercely

As a knight guarding a sacred flame,

Shielding it to my dying breath,

Against the cold winds of doubt and pain.

I know we're apart right now,

But I can't shake the feeling 

That this is not the end of our story.

Thought I am not your first love,

If given the chance,

I would love to be your last.

Our story isn't over yet;

It still has pages to turn,

Chapters to write,

A love waiting to unfold.

So if ever you feel ready,

I'll be here,

Waiting with open arms

And a heart that has learned

To cherish each beat.
