One Broken Heart, One Shattered Dream

Folder: 
February 2007

I never thought I would ever find you

Now I am grateful that I could

I love you with all of my heart

More than I ever thought I could



The story started out so clearly

Rejected one too many times

The pain had gotten too heavy

Nearly crossing over the line



One broken heart, one shattered dream

That is when it all started to fall apart and rip at the seams

Tears started falling freely and quickly

I just wanted to stop the pain from beating



Continuing my life as I normally did

Beneath my happy disguise I hid

The pain Just couldnt get rid

No one was there to listen for I was still just a kid



I put myself out there, gave love another chance

However I got nowhere close to a glimmer of a romance

Rejected once again, wondering what I did that was so wrong

Was there any hope for me go on?



This time I locked my heart away

Put it high up on a shelf

Vowing to never let it out again

Until the day I reluctantly let someone in



He showed me love that I misbelieved as true

Unknowning of the damage he could do

Felt like he put a knife right into my heart

Shattering it in a million little pieces, not giving up until it was all torn apart



I was left there to pick up the pieces and to clean up the mess

Wondering why it happened again, continuelly I stressed

Was there something wrong with me..?

I couldnt understand how they all walked away so easily...



The pain was too much for me to bare, needed to find someway to make it cease

I started to cut myself, and I learned to love that release

It became a strong addiction, couldnt go a day without it

So everytime I felt pain, another body part I slit



The next heartbreak was one of the biggest of them all

He was there for so long, couldnt stand to let him see me fall

Too ashamed to get the help I needed, too afraid to crawl

I started to feel anger, so inspite of that I would punch out the wall



The next guy was my rebound, we fell way too fast

Moving like a car heading head first into a crash

So I decided to let him go

I was scared that I had no control



I put my heart, locked tightly in a cage, high back on that shelf

Vowed I would never let it down again unless I was sure of myself

I felt so lonely and abandoned for so long

The words to the song I was singer were all wrong



Still hurting myself to ease the pain inside

Tired of living, to the point where I would rather have died

So many lies, too much sorrow

Never did I want to see another tomorrow



Then one night, so very dark

This one came and stole my heart

Right before I was going to jump of the edge

He grabbed my hand and pulled me off the ledge



He wiped my tears away from my eyes

and then and there he promised me no more lies

He held me close promising he would never leave

I felt his words in my heart and for once I started to believe



He knew of my past, my pain and my scars and loved me anyway

He said as long as I would let him, he would love me each and everyday

Something changed, somewhere along the line

As I now feel his hands in mine



He is still by my side and he says his feelings are strong and true

I am so grateful to have someone I love who loves me too

Thought I was far too broken to give out my heart

I feel as though I can trust him to never rip it apart



I know I will love him till the very end

He is the one, my very best friend

He helped my heart to heal and mend

I own him so very much, becauase he saved my life

He is the one that got rid of my need for the knife
