My heart stands still
I can breathe
I feel no ill
because I’m free.
Don’t have the need
only desire
and do take heed
that it’s a temporary fire.
Because the truth is plain
my heart feels nothing
all the opportunities equally lain
but my heart’s not even opening.
It remains shut,
my skin warm, but my heart cold.
I’m afraid it’ll rot
but the fear becomes old.
So in the end I only embrace
the truth that stays unbroken
for you it may be hard to face
that my heart is frozen.
