Armor Covers My Heart:

A proctective covering made of 

metal now covers my heart,

no one will ever be able to destory it,

or tear it apart.

No more sadness....

no more grieving over what once was....

what is no longer......

and what can not be....

my heart of armor now protects me.

No more denial....

no more anger....

no more  feeling empty....

my heart has grown cold,

blackness now covers what use

to be sweet memories.

My heart was crushed inside my chest,

a feeling all to real,

the physical pain.....

the emotional despair....

a feeling that can not be healed

even with prayer.

Locked up in chains so thick,

with proctective armor on top of it,

no one will ever have a chance to get close to it.

Purhaps in time my heart will heal,

until then I will continue to cover my heart

with armor,

bad memories I will always harbor,

thus keeping my heart coverd with protective armor.

It pained me every time I encountered the emotion and frame of mind conveyed in this piece. You captured what I felt I was up against so beautifully. Much respect 2U
