Black heart
My heart was once made of glass
Well mannered and petite, I was a lady of class
So kind hearted I wore my heart on my sleave
And every one I gave it to turned and leave
One good hit was all it took to scatter
And that good hit also broke it's platter
The pieces I took and tried to glue together
But deep down I know it was gone forever
Glass once broken can never be the same
But the breaking of objects had always been a game
So I took my heart and buried it within
And with pieces of steel like made it whole again
With buckets of paint I painted it black
Light destroyed it one, I gave it to the dark
So long always laugh when they say your heart is black
The presence of light your heart lack
But light once broke and destroyed me
While darkness protect and restored me
I now accept it my heart is black
And in the light it will never go back.
