Heartbroken

Stop the pain

Stop the bleeding

Stop the heartache I am feeling

I thought it was love

But it wasn’t me you were thinking of

You had your papers, you were set

You cheated on me, my heart’s been wrecked

Tears like rivers until the well’s run dry

My heart withers until it eventually dries

I wish I could harden my heart

Everytime I give love a new start

This always happens to me

Love blinds, making the wise foolhardy

I want to love

To no longer be alone

For the feeling of warmth in my home

I’m tired of feely empty

Tired, tired of being lonely

See, it’s a dichotomy

All I ask is why ?

Why can’t it be ?

All I long for is love

A family to care and think of

Yes, this is quite hard work

But my duty I’d never shirk

It rolls down to me

I’m a self-fulfilling prophecy

I guess that’s it

I’m supposed to be alone

I guess I have to travel this road alone.
