Take What Is Yours

Take the piece of my heart that will always be yours
Take care of it, but don't make this a chore
That piece will remain forever yours
Only you could heal it from being eternally sore.

There is a space where that piece used to reside
Now it's a darkened place where only fear hides
Locked away deep inside
As you're no longer around to be the one in whom I can confide.

There may come a day
When another you comes along my way
Someone who only has sweet nothing's to say
But a whole heart he will not win, losing him will be the price I pay.

So take care of that fragile heart piece
It is yours...not on lease
Loving you, wanting you will never cease
Until the day I become one of the deceased.
