HOW MUCH?

HOW MUCH CAN THE HEART TAKE

BEFORE IT TOTALLY BREAKS IN-TWO?

IT MUST BE ABLE TO TAKE A GREAT DEAL,

FOR IT HAS TAKEN IT FROM YOU.

IT HAS BEEN BATTERED AND BRUISED

FROM YOUR LACK OF ATTENTION;

IT HAS BEEN HANDLED AND USED

YET, YOU HAVEN'T MENTIONED

THE FACT THAT YOU NEVER LOVED ME,

YOU WERE JUST USING ME TO TRY TO GET

WHAT YOU WANTED, AND LET ME

WORRY ABOUT WHAT WAS GOING ON NEXT.

YOU WERE ALWAYS SO VERY BUSY

DOING THINGS FOR OTHERS,

THAT YOU HAD NO TIME AT ALL TO SHARE WITH ME.

WHEN I TOLD YOU I HAVE NO MONEY,

I HAVE NEVER HEARD FROM YOU AGAIN.

THAT SHOWED ME, WITHOUT A DOUBT,

EXACTLY WHERE I STAND.

ALONE, SO ALONE, AGAIN.

YOU HAVE LIED TO ME ABOUT MANY THINGS,

AND WHEN I CHALLENGED YOU ON A FEW,

YOU WOULD GET VERY ANGRY AND SAY YOU KNEW

THAT I DID NOT LOVE YOU...NOT TRUE.

THE LOVE YOU OFFERED UNCONDITIONALLY,

SEEMED TO HAVE A CONDITION, BRING MONEY.

IT IS NOW FUNNY FOR ME TO SEE

WHAT YOU WERE TRULY AFTER FROM A

SILLY WOMAN LIKE UNTO ME.

HOW MUCH CAN A HEART TAKE

BEFORE IT IS IRREPARABLY BROKEN?

I DO NOT KNOW, YET I DO KNOW THIS,

YOU DECEIVED ME, YOU WERE A TOKEN

OF LOVE, NEVER THE REAL THING.

YOU HAVE GONE, AND I AM ALONE AGAIN.
