Heartbeat

a heart can only break
so many times
it must ache
to get into these rhymes

wait until tomorrow
to fill empty space
tea leaves steeping sorrow
shining tears on our face

where did love go
did it leave me
didn't it show
did others see

is life so unfair
or is it just me
heartbeats do care
but they are not free

heartache does teach
wake up and learn
within your reach
afraid of a spurn

we choose with fate
heartbeats direction
before its too late
missing perfection
