A shattered heart

I look as you talk down on me;
your eyes are filled with scorn.
as you hand me a precious rose
i am pricked by every thorn.

your words cut me open
like a diamond cuts glass.
my heart is shattered like a mirror.
i pray that this will pass.

i wish that i could hate you,
but my heart won't let it be.
i'm hopelessly in love with you
even if you don't love me.

i didn't konw a loved one
could have a heart as cold as stone.
i didn't know i would lose you
and end up all alone.

we once were star-crossed lovers,
but slowly we fell apart.
better things will fall together
when comes a change of heart.

you and i are finished
for reasons i'll never know,
but i know i must move on.
it's time to let you go.
