Heartless
It started in a sunny country,
where my sun sleeps during their day.
Where I learned that for autonomy,
family was the price to pay.
And it lingered as I came of age,
this bitterness and drought,
because the moon always reminded me
of a distance I shouldn’t have to care about.
Then they left me for a rainy place…
That pain I thought I could surmount.
I tried to smile throughout the years,
But there’s not a truthful smile I can recount.
Then I lost him. Now I’ve lost you too. And I lost myself regardless.
When you lose your heart repeatedly, there's no wonder you become heartless.
