Bruised and Broken

This great desperation
Now dwelling within me
A vast chasm so very deep
Filled with darkness and despair

For you see my friend
There is no greater agony
Than to give your heart to another
Who so carefully conceals her heart

Bruised and broken is she
Struggling against years of betrayal
Abused by those who should have loved her
Leaving her filled with fear and mistrust

I present to her this mortal man
Filled with an abiding love and desire
To bring into her soul a love so pure
To again bring a smile to her heart

Open your heart my lovely maiden
For this man stands now dedicated
To your eternal happiness
To our eternal love.
