UNTOUCHED

My heart's been broken

Into a thousand pieces

And it’s been broken

More than a thousand times

People say I’ll never learn

But they don't understand...

I've recovered every fragment

And I pieced it back together again

But it doesn't help, it’s feels like it's in vein

The pain remains the same…

I’ve been left behind without a reason

Feel like I've no purpose, just fell to treason

I've gathered every shred of hope left

I've been thinking lately

It's time to retreat back inside

It's gotta be me and only me for a while now...

That's why I'll be on my own from now on

And until the day I meet the one

My heart will remain; sealed

Surrounded by defense mechanisms and under heavy guard

My heart will remain: unheard and locked

Hidden away from this twisted cruel world

My heart will remain; unloved and unseen

Until the right person comes along and

Breaks through these colossal walls

Until then my heart will remain

Hidden, deep within a maze

Like a sacred secret, carefully buried;

Unheard, unloved, and perfectly intact.

Until THE ONE, comes along,

One that fills me with wonder once more

And overwhelms with truth, life and love

Like a sudden adrenaline rush…

But until then my heart will remain

Hidden away, buried deep down,

Unheard, unseen, untouched...
