It hurts a heart to love
to give without reciprocation
to go beyond and above
for some lowly abomination
A heart begins to bleed
to feel a love unrequited
to long for what you need
and know you've been slighted
And when a heart cries
because you've accepted love lost
and you forget the lies
you'll find out the cost
That a heart can heal
though seldom forget
and the heavens reveal
that there is love yet
