You've Shot Me

You've shot me down
From the perch that I sat.
I fell a few feet
And landed with a splat.
Nothing was broken but my heart.
I cried many tears
For this was my worst fear.
The pain was unbearable,
Nothing could heal
What you did to my heart.
When you shot me that day
All I could really say
Was, "I'm sorry."
Because of course,
Everything is my fault.
Sue me, lock me in a vault.
Just don't play with my heart,
It's shattered before
And I'm scared it'll happen again.
