A Softened Heart
A heart once bound by steel and stone,
Worn by the battles it faced alone,
Found solace in a tender gaze,
And slowly softened through love’s maze.
The walls that once stood tall and proud,
Came crumbling down without a sound.
A touch, a word, a whispered plea,
Brought forth the strength in vulnerability.
No longer cold, no longer lost,
It learned that warmth was worth the cost.
Through gentle hands and patient grace,
A softened heart found its rightful place.
In the dance of life, it dared to beat,
To feel each joy and each defeat.
For in the softness it embraced,
A hardened heart was gently traced.
Now, open wide to love’s sweet call,
It knows that softness conquers all.
For in the yielding, it became,
A beacon bright, a glowing flame.
No longer hidden, no longer scarred,
A softened heart now beats unmarred.
In love’s embrace, it found its start,
A gentle, warm, and softened heart.
