Dear stranger,
I hope that you read this and find room in your heart
For a few sad words and a woman with a rocky start.
You see, I have started anew, in a city without a name
And I wish to make my mark on it so that it will never be the same.
But I have some extra baggage, a man with eyes of steel
Who wishes to make me remember how to feel.
So I'm asking you stranger, just one simple task,
I want you to take my heart and hide it in your flask.
I will not be harsh, or hard to endure,
Its just, simply, my heart can take no more.
I ran to this place wishing on a dream
And he chased me down and ripped all the seams
So I need a safe place, simply to lay and rest
So that this man, who may try his best,
To find my heart will never prevail
Because I want you to put me in the mail.
And once again send me off far and wide,
Hoping that someday that man will change his mind,
And that I will finally be able to open my soul,
To another that will not demand such a toll.
