My Heart I Couldn't Fix
You came so unexpectedly
 Like a snowflake in July
 And watching you from afar
 Was like a clear and cloudless sky
 The steps you took were quiet
 And your footprints left a mark
 It’s as if you landed on my heart
 Took a match and lit a spark
 For my heart was once so shattered
 That if you held it in your hand
 The pieces would fall through
 Like grabbing handfuls of sand
 For years I tried to mend it
 No band aid held it shut
 It was too broken to repair
 And had too deep of a cut
 So I came up with a plan
 With my super glue nearby
 To attempt to fix it by myself
 It never hurts to at least try
 Piece by piece I placed the glue
 And filled it in its cracks
 Then later left it to dry
 Still, there was something that it lacked
 But the moment that I saw you
 My heart began to melt
 I realized that this old thing
 Still remembered how it once felt
 And like a mold to my heart
 You caught it in your hands
 You shaped it back to normal
 Right then I began to understand
 That no matter how I tried
 My heart I couldn’t fix
 I was missing an ingredient
 Till I added you to the mix
