My heart has been broken
Too many times to count now
One after another
From cold-hearted ice Queens
Their words draw you in
Entice you into opening your heart
Then smash it into pieces
Crushing it in their hands with a smile
Time and time again
I felt betrayed by all of you
Leading me astray with kindness
Offering hope and gentle caresses
Before the devil inside you
Comes out to play with me
Laughing and teasing me
As you point and stare at how I look
I acknowledge I'm not perfect
Even someone like myself can admit
I'm no Hollywood sex object
Or even look like a superstar
I'm just a normal guy
Imperfect in many ways of both shape and size
But this heart that beats inside
Still feels the same pain and hunger as others
Companionship and love
From someone who looks upon me as normal
Is that really too much to ask
In this world full of diversity
A warm body to lay next to
In the cold dead of night
Lips that would kiss me
Words whispering into my ear of love so real
I have so much love to offer
An open heart that flutters like a butterfly
For someone to hold
In the palm of their hands
I have needs and desires like any other person
To make love to a woman who feels the same
But love and friendship are the two most precious things
That would define our true journey together
