Love

So what 
do you do 
about a 
broken heart? 

Say that the 
pain will pass 
and the sun 
will soon rise 
again 

You’ll forget him 
you reassure yourself 
He’ll fall into 
the deep, dark 
corners of 
your memories 

And somebody else 
will take his place 
smiling so beautifully 
You’ll love him more 

The sun will 
shine so much 
brighter 
for you both 

He’ll be the one,  
your soulmate, 
your other half 

You’ll write his name 
all over your 
notebooks 
and doodle hearts 
everywhere 

Until he dumps you 
like everyone has 
before him 
 
You’ll cry 
again 
another broken heart 

but you stitch 
it back together 
again 

piece by piece 
your shattered heart 
is rebuilt 
ready to love again.
