When something bad happens you have three choices. You can either let it define you, let it destroy you or you can let it strengthen you.

Look at this heart
Does it look torn apart
And stabbed with a dart

Or do you see the beauty
Hidden beneath

With each beat
This heart is struck
With emotion so deep

Forbidden peace
But love still to seek
You stole a piece of my heart

As its beauty
Is torn apart

Yet love runs deep
Deeper than feet

Look at this heart
Does it look torn apart
And stabbed with a dart

Or do you see the beauty
Hidden beneath

The beauty that is seen with a loving eye
Not the words that roll the die
The eyes that make this heart beautiful
