Dreams, Hopes & Tears

Jar Of Hearts

Jar Of Hearts: 

I wonder as I look at your shelf with the lines of jars in front of me 

Whether you realise that my heart is in one of those jars 

Because I gave it to you long ago 

But as I see more hearts on that shelf 

I wonder if you still remember you are looking after mine

I doubt you do 

I am but one in the crowd now 

Not the one you seek 

Not the one you said you needed

I am merely now not seen 

But I know in my soul 

If you were to whisper in ear 

Tell me you need me 

I would be there in a second 

So as I place a finger against the jar where my heart is placed

I begin to shed a tear

I wonder would you miss it 

If I was to take it back 

And I was no longer there...
