The heart of a man I was told…
Was hard… was strong
It was guarded and protected
Only to him; it would belong
A man’s heart was never fragile
Needn’t be handled with care
Even in times of crisis
Well…his heart would fare
But in a time; recent
To my distress, I’ve come to find
A man’s heart can be damaged
By deception and by lies
A friend hurt the heart of a lover
Doing a deed she thought… right
But any deed done through deception
Will always produce a fight
And now I must fight for the heart
Of a man that once was mine
Not knowing if he will forgive
If his heart will mend with time
The heart of a man may seem distant
May seem to endure more than would mine
But when it’s bruised, it’s torn, even shattered
This man’s heart I may not again find
