Can they?

Can the broken ones be mended?
Can the wounded ones be healed?
Can the heartless ones be loved?
Can the frozen ones be melted?

Can the dead ones be revived?
Can the lonely ones be popular?
Can the vengeful ones be forgiving?
Can the guilty ones be innocent?

Can hearts like mine be saved?

Ahhh! Once again I feel the emotion coming through. Once again I am left envious!

I can only speak about the most fundamental elements of poetry because I have not studied it intensely, but in the second stanza I think your meter could be improved a bit. The second, third, and forth line have the same number of syllables, but the first line is two syllables short (I could read 'revived' as re-vi-ved, so just one syllable maybe). The quickest fix to that I see is replace "dead" with "deadest" or something.

Yeah I noticed about the second stanza. It was tempting to delete it but something stop me from it. Thanks for your review :D

If the heart wishes to be save

Well yes but the question was "can it be..."
Not will it be or is it willing to be. :)
