• Tender is the heart that never mends
    Shunned away with a burden to bare
    Longing for that someone that doesn't care
    Broken is the will that bends

    Shattered heart with scattered pieces
    Fixed in remnants of the past
    Not letting go aghast
    Disclosed feelings emerges

    Vowing to one day love again
    Knowing that the pain inside will one day subside
    The feelings I once had, I will confide
    I’m in agonizing strain and pain

    I tugged you at the sleeve
    And my life fell apart at the seams
    Unraveling now conscious thoughts of streams
    I grieved for you knowing no relieve

    Crying and fearful of prying eyes
    Weakened by a deep sense of vulnerability
    Looking for strength marked by more inflexibility
    I admit I was unwilling to change and part of the fault with me lies

    Despite my errors, love me nonetheless
    Lest not forget we were both young and rash
    And with age we’ve matured being less brash
    Wistfully hoping for friendship, I confess

    Discouraging words will part and never resonate
    When I hear the words, I want to hear
    Forgiveness from you, I lend you my ear
