Poem
Despised my heart
And it's so called love
Because the smallest of affection
Causes it to bloom
Into something beautiful
Only to wilt again
Unable to sustain itself
Why even try
To love anymore
If that's the plan
To betray itself countless times
As if a record on repeat
Making me bear the pain
Of losing someone once again
And watching the sadness
Through eyes, in another heart
Locked up my heart
To keep from reaching out
Only to protect others
From that same, hopeless fate
Shall no longer to try
and fail at this risky game
For loved ones' tears have been shed far too many times
Contain the emotions so no more can be wounded
A battle of heart is a battle of soul, destructive to both
Casualties are inevitable in this war declared against myself
Yet the tree snapped in the wind and broke more than itself
I can longer feel love anymore, for I broke myself to protect others from that very emotion that has disappeared from inside of heart
