Dear lovers
Before you go out there
Breaking the hearts of your infatuated lovers
Just remember this
Not everyone takes heartbreak so well
In some cases, you're not breaking just the heart
You're breaking the person, you're breaking the soul
And just like that, this individual snaps
In one possibility, the guy is angry
And he takes out his anger
On the man that accidentally bumped into him
So the man finds himself in the hospital
And because of you, the way you handled the situation
The doctor is finding trouble, gathering courage
To tell the man that his days on his feet are over
Because he'll never walk again
In another scenario, the lady with the Chevy
Drove to her favorite bar
And took a couple of beers too many
Pain clouded her judgement, so she decided to drive
She didn't see the red light and the man crossing the road
Boom, it's a hit and run
The man, a single dad, passed on seconds after impact
And now, the cop looking into the hit and run
Has to walk up to the deceased man's house
And, filled with remorse for the culprit
Tell the 12-year old kid that dad's not coming home
"Because dad's gone, kiddo"
So, before you extinguish that dull flame
That once burned so bright in both of you
Do it retrospectively
In this case, don't rip the bandaid off
Do it with care and compassion
Even though there's no way it won't hurt
Do it in a way that makes the hurt less
So that when the heart is broken
Within the shattered pieces, a new flame can be found
One that can reforge the heart into a new one
So,when you break someone's heart
Please, break it with care...
