Two Hearts

Folder: 
Love Blossoms

You looked beneath the shell
and saw my heart
and knew that it was pure
if a little bruised.

 

Life made me jaded
but still I trusted you
like I had never been hurt.

 

I recongized your heart
was made of
the same material as mine.

 

I am still just
scratching the surface of you,
like a tarnished penny.

 

I know there's a
bright shiny heart underneath
just waiting to be loved.
