What would happen,

if a heart were to break?

As slowly it split,

should you not awake?

Metaphorically speaking,

impossible take.

Death should overcome,

if your heart were to break.

But what if a hand,

had hold on your heart,

and at inopportune times,

would tear it apart?

The pain would be real,

but not really true.

So what would you say,

if that hand was you?

Would you dare to care?

Would my pain truly matter?

I hope you shall take it,

though this heart's been battered.

Please don't deny me,

but leave me alone.

This agony within,

I just want to be gone.

Please don't hurt me.

I've seen it enough.

I can't help but shiver,

at your simplest touch.

I must admit,

I'm scarred to the core.

I'm terrified of you,

though you're all I adore.

So please, just accept me,

and make it all right.

Or your grasp on my heart,

might just wretch it too tight.
