Dear Heart

Dear heart, I miss you so
This Valentine is just a sign to let you know
Though I've cried so many tears
I have learnt so much this year
About the way a broken heart can heal
Dear heart, I dream of you
Of holding you and pat the way i used to do
And though it's hard for me to face
I feel the future holds a place
And I'll somehow find the grace to make a start
Without you now, dear heart
For there are those who chose to hold their hearts for ransom
And there are those who chose to take their love in vain
And there are those who are born rich and bold, and handsome
Who stand to lose the finest gift they claim
Dear heart, you'd love it here
The prairie sky compels the eye to dry the tears
So I may see in those i meet
Living life still incomplete
How lucky I have been to be a part
Of loving you, dear hear
