I Loved You Once

 

"My heart is made of glass,

very delicate in design.

 

I gave it to you for you to hold,

Because your trust was mine.

 

You placed my heart in a little box,

and you often never looked inside.

 

I loved you once when you loved me,

and it seemed the World was still.

 

But now I turn away in tears,

because My Angel is leaving me.

 

My heart now is in your hands,

I ask you, please don't break it.

 

But tears fall from my eyes,

as I watch you drop it on the ground.

 

My heart is now a thousand pieces,

shattered shards of glass.

 

I stand looking down at them,

what was once my life.

 

You said you'd never leave me,

I trusted you with my soul.

 

I can't believe I fell for you,

the second time a fool.

 

I ask you now to look,

deep inside your heart.

 

Where you might find whats left of me,

in a little heart-shaped box."
