LET IT BE SAID

Refined by fire

LET IT BE SAID

Let it be said
This broken heartĀ 
Regained its consciousnessĀ 
Being tossed upon the heap.

The impact of rejection
Awaken its functionĀ 
To love unconstitutionally.

It took a skillful surgeonĀ 
To remove the damage you've done
But in the arms of anotherĀ 
Your betrayal I've overcome.

By Wilford Barker.
