What is a broken heart?

Is it a physical thing
Or a feeling inside?

What is a broken heart?

Can it be fixed with glue
Or must it be band-aids?

Why is a broken heart?

Why something I feel
When we are apart?

Why is a broken heart?

Something I acknowledge,
Though I would rather not.

What is a broken heart?

Is it the feeling of pain
Down deep inside.

What is a broken heart?

Is it the knowing you've lost
Something you'll not gain?

Why is a broken heart?

A thing I wonder for,
Something I must know.

Why is a broken heart?

Making me cry,
Wishing I could die.

What is a broken heart?

Is it the feeling of losing
Even though I've yet to try?

What is a broken heart?

Is it this feeling I feel deep inside?
The feeling I've no room in your heart?

Ah, that's right.
This is a broken heart.
