My heart, shattered
In pieces on the floor
My mind, scattered
Knocks upon its door
Seeing your bright smile
I sit and I stare
Then for a short while
I wonder what is fair
Is it fair to wait
To be as shambles
For one perfect mate
My patience, it ambles
While I stay here
In total agony
Waiting for you, dear
I’m Juliet on the balcony
I will wait for you
Until I’m wasted away
Or until time is due
To get me through the day
But I hope you
Will find the happiness
That you are due
I wish you the best
I wish you to know my heart
But I am not sure
If you’ll tear it apart
And there will be no cure
I’m so very afraid
Of what’s to come
Though I’ve tried to be brave
I’m not at home
I thought I’d found home
But in truth, I was alone
Locked in a thin-glassed dome
I’ve become chilled to the bone
Here is my heart in my hands
I will pass it to you
Just as it stands
For the benefit of who?
Certainly not me
You could tear it in two
But who can I be
Surviving without you?
You’ll be going off to school
And I’ll still be here
Totally without you
Nowhere even near
Keep it close
Keep it near
Do the most
To come back here
To me
