a piece of something valuable torn,
a relic of something once so pure,
an image of pure beauty
a heart, once found, but now lost,
a soul, once whole, now broken,
a dream, once secret, now an embarrassment
an item once sacred, now unimportant,
a star, now an empty darkness,
a gift, now a broken toy,
that heart that i speak of,
is now lost, lost because
of careless use and neglect
a heart not broken,
a heart not frayed,
but a lost heart
a heart that hopes its love
will find it and ask it for its
hand,
a heart that asks to be
used properly and to be
loved and it loved its caregiver
a heart lost because of the demon,
the demon that stole its love away and
rules the loved one's mind
