If only I had the right kind of heart

I don’t think

You

realize how much

you mean to me.

 

You always say how

you don’t

Deserve

better,

You are every bit deserving.

 

I can’t even put into

words how

Much

brighter my life has become

with you around.

 

I honestly don’t know

how my life could get any

Better

You’re all I need,

All I want.

 

I want to be all I can for you.

I crave your smile more

Than

anything,

in the whole entire universe.

 

I don’t want to lose you.

I don’t want what

Me

and you have to go to waste,

to add your name to the long list of failed relationships.

 

I’ve been hurt repeatedly, violently and cruelly,

There’s not much left of my heart.

But I want you to have it,

I trust you to take care of it.

 

If only I had a heart to love you with

This reminds me of a story of my friend. He fell in love with a girl who's really wounded --really compeletely wrecked. The girl is also so in love with my friend.
He talked to the girl and the girl said "Take my heart, take my love, it may not be perfect, it may not be the best love, it may not be complete, it is broken, but this is the only heart I have --the best I can give. Take it, it's for free."

I really love a poem with simple words. Straightforward words. Pure Words. I see the truth in your words. And it's all that matters. :)

It's not the heart that loves by the way, it's the person who owns the heart. It's not the heart that is broken, it's the person who's owning it. :)

I love the format of this. It took me a minute, but I finally realized that the one line said You Deserve Much Better Than Me. I loved that. The poem was very straightforward and I liked it:) Great job!
