How can
one heart feel so much?
Longing
for a smile or a touch.
How can
one heart turn from love?
When
the one offering thought it was sent from above.
How can
one heart tell another heart how it feels?
Knowing
that the reply will be more than that with which it can deal.
How can
one heart keep quiet its pain?
Thinking
the other has so much to gain.
How can
one heart mend all alone it seems?
Loosing
faith in all its dreams.
How can
one heart go on to seek another after being broken?
Holding
in all the hurt, pain, doubt and mistrust that goes unspoken.
How can
one heart be offered out in the palm of my hand?
With
nobody there to take it and love it, by taking a stand.
