Tragedy of the Heart

It's a tragedy...
A tragedy of the heart
When...
The one you love and trusted most
The one who professes his love to you

The one who promises to protect and care for you
Betrays you



How can your heart ever trust again
When...
The one who means the world to you
The one who says "I do" and "I'll die for you"
The one who makes your life whole and complete
Betrays you

How can your heart be yours again
When your heart...
Has been crushed so ruthlessly & mercilessly
Is so badly hurt, there's no more spirit and joy
And it has now lost its rhyme & rhythm

After all the damage has been done
When your heart is now irreparable
When it has lost its beat & is slowly dying away

Then you know...
It is indeed
A tragedy of the heart
