"There was someone I exchanged hearts with,
A man I once knew.
I gave him my heart,
He gave me his too.

While I held onto his tight,
With mine, he let go.
It fell to the floor,
It crashed, then it broke.

He snatched his heart from my palms,
Then gave it away.
The void in my arms,
I can feel til this day.

In an instant, he had left me,
With the pieces of my heart astray.
He had uttered to me lies,
All too easy to say.

How is it possible to be broken,
But love someone as a whole?
To fall for someone who doesn't love you,
Is a never-ending hole." - miranda j.
