A Chat with the Heart

By ​Vasati

Oh Hello again! It's you
come on in
have a seat 
Let me put the kettle on, please relax
have some tea

I warned you about this
I told you they'd all leave
One way or another 
they hurt you
and you hurt me

So tell me, what happened this time? 
Did he leave? Or did he cheat? 
Why so surprised? Of course, I know 
You never learn from the 
mistakes you repeat 

Go on cry me a river and if you feel like it, 
upgrade to an ocean 
I let you go in one piece
and you come back  all shattered and broken 

It's time to put our guard 
back up
But first, let me heal us both 
Swear to me this won't happen again 
Please…. swear it on the oath

"Cross my heart 
and if I croak 
drop a toenail in my coke
Never again 
will I let in 
a person who will only 
leave me broken"
