Let me tell you what your heart is filled with.

A murk of vengeance, that spoils the once white marbles of the clean slate,

The urge to keep the real you safely tucked in a corner, always hidden away,

A line of scar from when you collided with the cruel hands of destiny,

A bitter liquid that oozes in the drenched land of when you were hurt by me.

And at last,

A tiny glimmer of light making its way through a crack, from deep down your soul,

A flicker of hope that won't relent, a memory you can't seem to let go.
