Fragile Hearts
Feeble souls can make poor decisions without thinking
Regretting life altering choices without even blinking
About the time winter came she grew delicate and frail
Growing farther away and ending up in internal jail
Insubstantial hearts can break with such strong ease
Love couldn’t save her then she died out in the freeze
Even the decrepit are blind to life’s gentle fragility
Her thinking she was careful with her morbidity
Ethereal love for herself broke her linked chains
And even in the end my constant self-pity remains
Rivers of vulnerability flows deep within my soul
Tenderly and quietly she died with an endless hole
Suicide is for the fragile hearts that have taken a toll
