Take a Piece
February 6, 2011
Take a piece of
A heart that's lying
Down, that's probably
Smart, so keep
It away from
Those who want
To take it away
Breathe in the light
Of springs flowers
And happy dreams,
Just don't give
Them away
Like every grown
Up thing
Think of a place
Where you'd
Remember, even
In the cold
November
People come and
People go and I
Know it's all
A show, just
Don't forget
What it was
Like on top
Of the cherry
Covered tree
