Same At Heart

She,the lonely downer
Her heart walled up with bricks & bars.

He,the optimistic one
In darkness he sees the stars

Ugly scars have marked her body
Ruthful words have marked her soul
Sadly love is not available for her anymore...

His life has been a mess amus
With a a mask of a smile he hides
But in his eyes a glint of need secretly abides...

No they must not be
Sadly they must stay apart
But even though they differ...
They are the same at heart

But she falls for him
His gentle soul attracts
But in all her wisdom she sadly decides to retract

But his gentle soul she must not dent
So her feelings she must hide
But how oh how will she ever decide
No matter how much his hand she wants to hold
She will not wound his precious soul of gold

He loves her too
She does not know
His feelings are being stomped
How will he teach her to love?
With a rose...with a card...maybe a dove?

However they must not be together
Yet its Fates choice to decide
And even though they differ
They are the same at heart...
