Shattered Heart
I knew you were
Standing there
Your face was locked
With a blank stare
My heart was shattered
And all over the ground
I tried to walk away
Without making a sound
But you heard me
Picking up the pieces
I said let’s start over
Take these roses
As you took them and
Put them in water
You said it’s too late
Don’t even bother
You knew where
I stood from the start
Those shattered pieces
On the ground were my heart.
