I’d rather have a broken arm
Than a broken heart.
A broken arm will mend itself
Without too many scars.
A broken heart may never mend,
Depending on the break.
For some, the break’s a fatal one
The damage is too great.
I’ve never known a person who
Died from a broken arm.
But fragile hearts need locking gates
To keep them from all harm.
Don’t throw the key away, with haste
Or give it carelessly
You have two arms; you have two legs
But only one heart, see?
