A Heart Once Broken – (poem version)
Sometimes, I still think of you and me
The way things were and used to be
When I hear that song we used to sing
On that old guitar, I used to bring
Broken dreams and bitter tears
With the passing of so many years
Remind me of how I used to feel
A heart once broken may never heal
All our hopes and dreams
Our future plans and foolish schemes
Carried away on a summer breeze
Over deepest ocean and stormy seas
Yesterday you were here in my heart
Today, we are so far apart
The singer may now be gone
But the song goes on and on…
I wonder do you ever think of me
The way thing were and used to be
Do you miss those halcyon days
Our wild and innocent ways
Or have you found that special one
To make you happy and make life fun
Were your hopes and dreams revealed
A heart once broken can be healed
