My Heart

I quietly stand in awe
Staring at my heart laying there
Beaten, battered and torn apart
Looking completely bare

I remember a time
When I held it in my hand
And watched it slowly grow
From a single grain of sand

I carefully pick up the pieces
Feeling my tears begin to fall
A constant struggle within
To not rise the never-ending wall

One piece remains missing
The one I gave to you
I never thought it was gone
But now I know it to be true

There is times I miss it
But not a moment of regret
All the memories created with you
I thank life that we have met

I will cry many nights
I don't know when the pain will end
But I will always smile
Knowing I still have a friend.
