MY HEART

My heart has taken a hiatus
And has been replaced by ice.
My don't give a fuck is running amuck 
And saying whatever is on my mind.

My mouth can be reckless
and vicious and sharp.
But no soldier goes to battle
without her weapon and armour

The tears that I shed for you
Have watered a garden of thorns 
That now surround and protect 
My heart that is battered and torn.

I know there's someone out there
willing to go the extra mile
To cut me from these thorns,
patch up my battered heart
and do whatever it takes to see me smile.
