How many pieces must one heart lose
Before it crumbles Lying in pieces at my feet Different size chunks For different size heartache's How can it continue to beat? They can start falling At any age, anyplace It starts as a crack in a piece of glass Or as a chip in a porcelain doll's face Paste or glue has no effect No material things to fix it with The crack's grow larger with each heartache A fine line growing larger each day If I ever figure out how to fix it I will gladly sell the secret for pay A normal heart weighs six or seven pounds I feel mine can be measured in ounces There goes another lying at my feet Here comes more hurt I feel it when my heart bounces POETDONTKNOWIT
