I have a beaten heart 
It's been that way from the very start. 
As an infant it was harmed 
God meant for this, don't be alarmed.

        A womans flow is like the river of life 
that's what makes her such a great wife. 
She's gentle and sensual with a rose for a soul 
her spirit is that of the river of gold.

        Roses cry my baby angel tears 
soft petals catching my fears 
White is the color that I cry 
for my Innocence that has died
        
...
    
        Love me, Love me, Love me now 
Show me, Show me, Show me how. 
You have those stars put in your eyes 
oh so beautiful they make me cry.
        
...
    
        May Gods blessings be many 
   
I hope you look down and find that lucky penny. 
Hope you remember to say 'Thank You' to the cashier

        My rushing river is my song 
taking me for a ride along 
the banks of lyrics and music 
where there I can pick and choose it.

        He kissed me only once 
I remember it that much. 
An echo of a kiss 
oh his lips I miss

        I sat outside one summers nite 
not a soul was in sight. 
I watched the evening as she watched back 
the prettiest shade of ebony black.

        A Dedicated love is True love broken down in it's rarest form. 
It is Eternity there forever and a day to mark it's way. Dedicated 
Love is pure love in your Souls essence in every beat of your Heart. 
In Dedicated Love you are linked together, bound tighter than a

        Angels up high in the golden mist 
filling my spirit up with heaven sent bliss. 
A choir of voices so peaceful and calm 
God's sending me his healing sweet balm.

        I am not as skinny as I once used to be 
nor am I quite as pretty. 
But I've changed inside too 
My soul is what has grew.
        
...
    
        I look up in the sky at night 
at all the diamonds twinkling lights. 
Gazing at them in amazed awe 
feeling compared so tiny and so small.
        
...
    
        Grace Hidden 
Finally I found my Grace 
Locked in my soul of all places.

                    A Beaten Heart
                    
                    I have a beaten heart 
It's been that way from the very start. 
As an infant it was harmed 
God meant for this, don't be alarmed. 
You see my heart is still bruised and beaten 
there is no safety no I won't be leaving. 
I have learned to live with a beating sore 
can't return this one to heavens door. 
I have a beaten heart 
It's been pulled and torn apart. 
I just close my eyes and pray to one day heal 
for my beaten heart to mend and to finally feel. 
I have a beaten heart.
