Gave You Piece of My Heart
I gave you piece of my heart
no one else has seen.
Snipped into paper snowflakes
and wrapped in silken ribbons.
I let you take pieces of my soul
no one else has touched.
I tucked them into little boxes
laid them with lace and dried flowers.
I watched you set fire
to dreams I never had
before I met you.
and I didn’t move an inch.
