My Heart Was Broken, But Not My Spirit...
My Heart Was Broken, But Not My Spirit,
You said you loved me only to later walk away ...
I put on a brave front, but inside I was shattered...
I smiled so you wouldn't see the hurt I felt inside and as I turned away I could feel the warm tears running down my face...
My heart was broken, but not my spirit,
As much as it hurt I had to accept what could not be...
Someday you may realize to late that I would have been the one who would have stood by you when others walk away...
I would have been the one to love you even if you lost everything...
I would have waited for you, been there to encourage you, to lift you up and to help you at the time...
I would have held you when you were sad and I would have comforted you and prayed with you...
I would have been there for you all of your days on this earth...
Now I must now learn to stop being in love with you which was not what I wanted to have to do...
I knew better than to let myself love you, for it wasn't meant to be, yet it seemed I couldn't stop from loving you...
Yet now I have no choice but to move
forward without you in my life as you once were...
My heart was broken, but not my spirit,
