How To Love

People have tried to steal my heart,

But had no luck.

I’ve experienced those perfect moments,

Perfect moments that didn’t last forever.

Just so I’d be convinced,

To take chances,

Chances that didn’t make sense.

I never figured out how to love.


And now I’m sitting in the corner.

With my broken heart.

Trying to put the pieces together.

Since then, I’ve put up a void,

And constantly looking over my shoulder.

Hiding my heart, so no one can get hold of her.

This can’t happen again.

But without the risk of getting hurt, I can’t find love.

But at least I’m safe in this corner.

Trying to put the pieces,

All these pieces back together.



But then you strolled over.

And sat with me in my corner.

You’ve earned my trust.

I decided I’d give you a chance.

But you’d have to climb over that void,

That huge wall.

Maybe after all that work,

On the other side, you’ll find that I’m worth it.

Worth keeping.


We are so compatible.

I want you to know,

You are far from the usual.

That’s why you stand out from the rest.

You’ve got my attention,

You’ve caught my interest.

Give me your hand

And let me lead the way.


I promise you’ll love it.

Because you deserve the best

You are beautiful.

My heart’s back together.

You’ve made it clear.

How to love.
