Heart Donor

The heart, it’s a muscle, it provides us with life,
It’s condition is affected by everything we do, we should always treat it right.
Trusting the wrong person is usually the biggest mistake we make,
It may not kill us, but it does leave your heart with an awful ache.
Sometimes I wonder, why do we repeatedly give our hearts away when we keep getting let down,
Why do we think someone can love us, when all we’ve experienced is people who never stick around?
What’s the meaning of love, I thought that it lasts forever,
That’s what I mean when I say it, I expect for us to always be together.
Broken, alone, worthless, just a few of the symptoms of losing false love,
They were the very person that you thought you’d never be deprived of.
I give up on love, I can’t keep causing my heart this immeasurable pain,
It hurts too much to care for someone who hates to even hear your name.
To give someone your all consumes you mind, body, and soul,
Because the true definition of love is having someone else with whom you feel makes you whole.
How do you bring pain to someone that you say you love when they’ve trusted you with their heart,
That’s a painful commitment to break when the two are torn apart.

Healing a broken heart, yeah it gets better in time,
But love is forever, so somehow they’ll always find a way back into your mind.
True love has no cure, the wounds are closed but the scars are a painful reminder,
That no matter where life takes you, you left someone in your past that put your heart in a meat grinder.
Why can’t people understand that love is a verb?
All talk and no action is sure to leave someone hurt.
Now I sit here feeling so empty and blue,
I just want to lock the door to my heart forever because of the pain caused by you.
What would it be like to live without emotions, that’s something I never thought I’d ponder,
Will things be better, will they be easier, for the sake of protecting my heart, I really do wonder?
Will I have to hurt from trying to make someone happy who couldn’t accept my efforts,
Would they appreciate me or constantly look for something better?
I’d take away the pain from my heart if I could.
If I could erase the memories from my head, I would.
The hole you put in my heart will forever cause me pain,
And I’ll never forget, it hurts so much just to hear your name.

How do you heal a broken heart, what’s the treatment for a spiritual and emotional wound,
I feel as if I may die if I don’t get help for this soon.
So God, if I lean on you, will my heart be made new again,
Because losing her, I feel as if I can never love again.
I gave you my word that I’d never leave your side,
You gave me yours too, but yours were filled with so many lies.
Each memory of the broken promises cuts deep into my heart,
I’ve been doing my best not to let my life just fall apart.
People don’t value their promises these days,
They love for a little while, not understanding that real love never fades away.
What’s the point of falling in love if people can tell you and just walk out the door,
If love doesn’t last forever, then here, take my heart, I don’t need it anymore.
For you, I was just a chapter,
I was meant to be in your life for only a short period of time.
For me, you were the entire book,
I wanted you to forever be mine.
