It cant be that a heart spreading compassion, love, and mercy
could be so empty...could it? could it be possible that the heart feels
joy but still knows that somewhere inside something's missing?
she'd spread her love to all places, gave her love to those who needed it,
remained through the pain, cried with those who wept.
how then is she still empty? impossible when so many reserves of love
have remained unopened...stored for the future, stored for the blood of
her blood and those she has adopted. she has wishes she knows will not come true.
and dreams she has begun to misconstrue. she has stopped, this heart, awaiting her dreams,
for fear of having them shattered and torn. for fear that all the hopes she's had
will be destroyed. in safety she hides and hopes in things she knows are true.
but the hope in dreams impossible, whether she believes in things unnatural,
she does not trust, she does not keep, for they will bring her pain.
the last thing she wants is her pain to grow. and so she'll let go of
what she holds most dear, although it may hurt and leave her in fear.
for she loves them more than words can express, more than herself. her
dreams can be dashed, her body and soul destroyed but her love
remains as long as they are happy. but no happiness except for theirs
does she hold she has no happiness of her own...does this explain the emptiness
of the heart? there's something she's missing. something unexplainable happening
within and she prays she does not drown. so cruel.
not my pic.... but my words yes.
