A heart broken
Shattered into a million pieces
By every man, every friend
The hurt seeps like a fountain of tears
Pain so intense
Afraid to love
As it seeps out
Like a river of blood
Hidden secretly behind a smile
Are the discreet whispering cries
Sheltered underneath a tough outer-shell
Are the tears falling from hazel eyes
She could open her heart
If the hurt wouldn't hinder
But the moment she drops her guard
Her heart always remembers
