Scars do not protect a heart,
Old wounds are oft renewed…

My mind plays tricks on me,
The kind without a laugh,
Spirits haunting memory,
As I walk my solemn path…

You listened intent, as if heaven sent,
And you memorized every word…

How hard would we laugh,
Salted smiles from glass rim,
You would still be just her,
And I would still be just him.

My heart cannot withstand such strife
Like the body easily can
For things that harm the heart
Can kill the inner man
