Heartless
What's it like to be heartless?
Is it like drowning in the deepest ocean?
Or maybe it is just more like
The draining of all emotion.
Being devoid of courage and enthusiasm...
marked by lack of heart and feeling.
Is that the truest definition?
Lacking of feelings, pity, warmth, and healing?
Would that make you nothing but a doll?
A play thing used by all?
I hope one day you tell me
Before you are nothing but debris
Don't let your heart fail
Because one day you may prevail
So hold on tight,
Do not let the darkness take complete control yet
Because I'll be waiting upon the sight
Of your unique and familiar silhouette
