Nature of the Heart
Cracks in the dirt
 Are like holes in the Earth
 And the clouds in the sky 
 Are the shatter debris from your long dry soul.
 
 The sun in the sky 
 Only brings dusty thought, 
 Drying and bakin and buring
 Your heart, 'til all that's left
 Blows away up into the dreamless sky.
 
 The clouds in the sky gather
 On the lonely face of the horizon
 The lonely breaze comes calling
 Calling the dusty thoughts to join
 This lonely cloud of dus
 Of a heart.
 
 The rain falls from the sky 
 Sending the shatters of a tattered heart
 Back down to the Earth.
 The tears of the sky brush the dirt
 Falling in the cracks of the Earth
 And thunder claps and lightning flairs
 As an underscribible thirst
 Is quenched. 
 
 The soft sweet grass grows
 Where naught but barren landscape had laid
 The frsh, new stalks full of 
 Life and hope and dreams
 Slowly stiching back the pieces
 Until they resemble once what was A wholey loving heart.
 
 It was not the same, 
 but stronger
 It was not as quick
 but kinder
 It was not so lost
 But on its way to being found.
 No, it was not the same, 
 But it had the untold beauty 
 Of a once broken heart.
