Heart Shaped Tears

On Valentine's day so many heart shaped tears
Love gone replaced by fears
No rivers flowing through the center of one's heart
Blocked by a dam close to the start
Once struck by Cupid's arrow
Flew higher then a sparrow
Now bridges broken beyond repair
Feelings of distress and despair
No chocolates in a heart shaped box
Threw away the key to your own locks
No sweetly scented bouquet of flowers
Instead a bad aftertaste leaving one feeling sour
A beautiful red rose replaced by black with sharper edged thorns
For next time they surely won't be the one feeling torn
Life seems gray and dull with no colors scents or tastes
You've lost that love and feeling, oh no what a waste!
No fret if alone for true love must start with and for yourself
So dust,polish and pick yourself up off your pity party shelf
Open up and dry your heart shaped tears
Have faith and remember love can conquer all fears
