Hearts and Hands
We were in love
We wanted forever
So we gave our hearts
As a present
To each other
But when the presents were opened
We discovered in horror
That things had gone wrong
My hands seemed much to big
In even the most careful clasp
Your heart might be crushed
Your hands seemed much to small
From your grip, no matter how careful
My heart might fall and shatter
We stared at each other
Wishing it weren't so
But knew what we had to do
It was the right thing
It was the smart thing
It was the painful thing
Carefully we returned our hearts to the boxes
Carefully taped them shut
And put the ribbons and bows back on
A heart once given
Can not be returned
But it can be held in trust
We hide our tears of pain
With smiles meant to reassure the other
And wish things were not so
And patiently we wait
For the day when things are different
And we might hold each others hearts with care
Of the day
When mine seem not so big
And yours don't seem so small
Just something I wrote. Tell me what you think.
