Green Moss On Cracked Wall

Hold back your thoughts,
       I have my doubts;

your mouth from clatter, 
       hear birds twitter.

Take that gaze off my eyes, 
       till your tear dries. 

If you pry into this jolly heart, 
       you find a stubborn dart: 
               lump of aching hurts, 
                     which culture skirts.
