Heartbroken

My heart breaks
A little each day
For problems I can’t solve
For things I can’t change
All I can do is pray
 
Please help me
Make it through another day
Mend my broken heart
It’s cracked
But it’s still beating

(2015)

If I could paint a man

If I could paint a man Eyes so dark they shine Brooding and stormy Til the smile breaks through If I could paint a man
