The Heart

Handsome boy with a broken smile,

with tears streaming down his face,

silently praying for someone to save him,

from the emptiness that is his home.

Beautiful girl with a fragile frame,

with a delicate smile on her face,

silently hoping that someone would notice her pain,

and save her from her lonely heart,

Handsome boy, why are you so empty?

she asked with her heart on her sleeve.

Beautiful girl, why are you so lonely?

he asked with his heart on his sleeve.

Oh, where is the heart?

Is it something I can hold?

If I tear open your chest,

will it be there?

Will you save me?

Will you reach for my hand,

before I disappear?

Where is the heart?

I don't know,

but my heart is with you,

and only you.
