My heart, it has been crushed and broken.
With only words that had yet been spoken,
I realized the truth behind the lie,
The lie I created and did deny.

Why did I let myself be tormented like this?
Hoping in darkness that I’d get a kiss.
A kiss? Ha! Now I laugh at the thought,
And realize I’ve been deeply distraught.

Everyone warned me; everyone knew
What would happen to me if I let this go through.
But I listened to no one, listened to none
And then my heart’s pain had just begun.

I continued to pursue, unknowing and blind
Eventually I let it all get to my mind.
It stayed there locked up, unable to escape,
Until the locks were then able to break.

When they finally broke, and I woke from my dream
And realized that things were not what they seem.
I felt my heart then begin to break,
As I realized that I had made a mistake.

But I know it will heal and I’ll get through.
Now I know what is real is true.
I’ll get over it and let my heart go on,
And let my hope come back, for now it is gone.
