Listen to My Heart Breaking

Love can be so cruel
I will not cry
Seldom will I cry
Tears will not come to my eyes
Everyone expects to hurt
Nobody can escape pain

Takes too much for me to even start to
Open my heart

My guard is always up
You can try to get in, but I might not let you

Heaven is here on
Earth
All angels know this
Reclaiming their
Timeless triumphs

Because we cannot live forever
Regardless of our desire to do so
Everyone returns to
A beginning of their creation
Knowing that they only got that one chance to
Impart their wisdom and they
Never are
Going to get that chance again
