That Illness Called Heartbreak

That illness called heartbreak,
it seems detrimental
gaining control over happiness
driving some mental,
Don't mean to be judgemental
but quit taking guys on a rental,
On that "rent to own" status,
soon pleasure dries out like cactus.

What a sour deal to take,
that illness called hearbreak.

Dont sweep good qualities under the dust,
the outside might be gold, but the inside is rust,
check out other aspects,
what their actions project,
what their words reflect,
be able to detect
if the size of their heart is life-sized or a speck.

The time you must be willing to take,
to steer from that illness called heartbreak.
