Heart
The sadness in my heart,
like I could reap it out
of my chest,
and try to find the reasons why.
The void in my soul,
like I can take it out
and enjoy existence without care.
The tears in my eyes,
only felt by me and no one else.
The smile continues to hide
the pain felt within.
The depression in my days
that not even food can take away,
reminding me of the choices I have made
and the opportunities that I've watched fade.
The fight is still in my bones,
I just can't sit back
and let life win.
My mind still reasons
and I haven't yet been robbed of wisdom.
For from each stroke I recieved,
I learned a lesson
not to give my joy to people
or to even my feelings that always lie
and never to abondon reason
even when it seems to darken
the light in my heart.
