Feelings in the aftermath of a heartbreak
OH, WHAT SHALL I DO WITH MY HEART?


Oh, what shall I do with my heart?
It used to feel a pain.
The pain is now a hundredfold,
But my heart feels it not.

Oh, what shall I do with my heart?
It used to sing a song.
The lyrics are on my lips but
I can’t give them a sound.

Oh, what shall I do with my heart?
It used to throb so wild.
But it’s so much frozen up now,
Not a whisper it has.

I don’t know if my heart is dead,
Or , if I live at all.
Why did I love if there was this
Heartbreak destined for me?
