broken heart and broken dreams

dream you said so i dared to dream dreams can come true you said so my dream was to be with you let's make it real you said so with one hand on my heart and the other reaching for you i blindly followed all the time knowing i need to be ready to catch my dreams before they hit the floor taking my heart with them and then i'll stand alone clutching my broken torn out heart in my hands clutch it to my chest where a heart is supposed to go and it will go on beating battered, bruised and a little more broken and i have to cradle it in my arms as i know it wants to leave me tired of endlessly beating hoping and waiting for dreams to come true i'll entice it to stay wrap it in words and soothe it with poetry and ask it not to go
