Once Broken May Never be Reforged

The broken bond of love cannot always be restored.

The broken bond of love, removes a richness, makes us poor.

The broken bond of love, isn't always ours to blame.

The broken bond of love, strikes at the weakest link within the chain.

The broken bond of love, makes us wish to be loved again.

The broken bond of love, makes us hide from all our friends.

The broken bond of love, hurts our heart and soul.

The broken bond of love, makes us former shadows, no longer separate wholes.

The broken bond of love, can make us pained and weak.

The broken bond of love, sends us searching for with an bottomless bucket that leaks.

The broken bond of love, is not always ours to fix.

The broken bond of love, leaves scars upon ourselves that we do not wish.

The broken bond of love, can make our heartstrings rather thing.

The broken bond of love, makes it hard to love again.
