Journey to his heart

I have set sail

on yet another troublesome journey

where my tears and scars

are showcased in his tourney.

I am shipped off

To a land of sorrow

Across the river of tears

Where the entry so narrow.

It was all red and dark

A home I made

His heart it was

Barred at the gates.

Trembling lips and swollen eyes

Those were my nights

‘cause to my love

I was never right.

“Love yourself”, he says

Then he seared my heart

His name carved on it

My favorite piece of art.

Now I sit here

All alone in dark

His voice echoes in my mind

My craze embarked.

I danced to his tunes

Showering my love,

my pure heart

like a chained dove.

Tonight I will sleep

With an empty chest

Now I close my heart

Giving it forever a rest.
