Broken

The Melody You Sing

You have engraved your name in my heart

It is a fresh rose amongst the battle scars

Your name- the name that keeps me from falling apart

Forever inscribed in my heart

When you speak I hear not a sound

Because my heart erratically pounds

The effect you have upon me is profound

And yet I have not heard you speak a sound

When you smile my heart skips a beat

And when you grace your eyes upon me I feel weak

I am humbled by your presence, I am lowly and meek

My heart, when you smile, skips so many beats

Your eyes, searing into my soul

When your eyes wander over me I feel whole

It makes me feel, that in the play of your life, I have a role

I hide nothing from your eyes as they burn into my soul

I don't know why you adore my friend

All I know is you make the pain end

I just wish, some of your adoration, to me you would lend

But I have accepted you always will love my friend
