Quartered Heart

by elizabeth   Jan 3, 2011


U asked me how much I love U
My answer is simple
My answer is clear

Divide my heart into 4
and take 1 piece
hold it and keep it
for U will always be the owner of that piece
that will always want U
and will always need U
and will always hunger for only U

U asked me why only that small little piece?
My answer is simple
My answer is brief

The 3 pieces of my heart have long been taken
and I only have this little piece left for me
A girl with my eyes, my courage and my strength took the 1st part
and A boy who's loving sensitive and smart took the 2nd part
the 3rd part goes to a little boy who out witted and outsmarted them all
gave me the greatest happiness and freedom.

So now I'm down with 1 little piece
the only piece that I have
the only piece that I saved for myself
and I give it now to U
treasure it and never break it
safeguard it with all Ur life
for if U lose it then
what else is left of me?
