New Path

On a new path 
Leaving my skeletons behind 
Only one way to go 
For it's me I need to find 
Taking the first steps 
Away from my past 
Hoping this time I succeed 
And this time, it lasts.

On a new path 
With my feet as my guide 
Stand on my own 
No longer will I hide 
Good-bye to the jealousies 
So long to the tears 
Off I go again 
Gonna conquer my fears.

On a new path 
Just me myself and I 
Can't promise you tomorrow, 
But I know I will try 
On my way up 
I know what I need to do 
This time in my heart, 
I know my path is true.

My Broken Heart

My heart bitter and cold
Full of life, but feels so old
Time has went by so slow
My heart is one only God knows

I need stability in my life
No more trouble no more strife
My heart has been through a tough fight
Happiness, laughter and joy is for what i strive

Surely I've made mistakes in the past
What i would not give for a relationship to last
No more secrets, lies or deciet
My heart is all you need to defeat

I will give you time
For this you will need
To get to my heart
If you so please

Inside my sleeve, I pull out my heart, handing it to you, "careful it's fragile, and easily falls apart." Extending your arms, you take the heart in your tender warm hands. It falls into a million shattered pieces - on the floor it lands. You begin to bend down to pick it up, sorrow and sadness in your eyes. Apologies are not enough. Looking at you with tears in my eyes, I ask you not to pick up the pieces of a heart that has fallen apart. I am the one who needs to pick up the pieces of my shattered heart - one by one, piece by piece. I need to put it together again, some how. some way. Each piece of my heart has a memory so true. Each piece of my heart has part of you. You are the one who is leaving to start a new lease on life. I'll just be here on my knees picking up the pieces of a heart that feels like it's being pierced with a knife. All my tears won't keep you near All my tears won't mend what's not here. Again I look at you with a whisper in my voice, The only way my heart will mend and finally be complete, is if you and I can come together without being discreet. You see, what we have here and today, helps me face the world, with a love for you that gives a glow - but now, my darling, you made a choice. My heart is on this floor, shattered and broke. With each piece I pick up - I need to learn to let go.

It's becoming more evident Much more obvious to me I thought much more of you Than you ever thought of me Was this my biggest mistake Letting myself think you cared Was I just your marionette With heartstrings open and bared With me left here still thinking What was false, what was true So puzzling and so complex I’m left to await another clue On my heartstings you played Each left with a loving memory Yet I still have those questions Do you ever think about me I’m wondering why all the intrigue Now why all of this mystery Why am I left here hanging Your the one that holds the key.

Yesterday's goals, dim memories. Dark saddened eyes, blurring with tears. Painful scars borne; Love's history. Futures crumble when doubt appears. No brightly lit hope envisioned, When following after harsh words. Hurt soul splits in twain, partitioned. Swooned by appeal - when numbness lured. Apologies made, never bought. Price paid turned out far too costly. Though never known what would be wrought - Must walk into the night softly. One wish, only to be released. Granted - now receive this token. Words written in rhyme, love's deceased. When promises made . . . were broken. By: Unknown
