I wish I didn't have this heart
of a troubled girl,
who carried a heavy burden from the past,
and then dumped it inside the present.
I kept running from the feeling of being ashamed,
the feeling deep within of being extremely dirty,
as I try to hide inside my cocoon-
convincing myself that I was not innocent
and deserve to be punished
for all the stress I caused.
And I wish I knew
how this darkness could be lifted,
because right now it feels like
there is no light,
no love,
no way out
of this heart of darkness.
