The Unaffirmed

Withered zest of life, and ashes of bleak hope,  
will have been seeping through the slits of this green heart, 
For one that was not imbued with love, 
is meant to forevermore remain dry and torn apart.

Thank you for reading and the feedback! It was born out of emotional pain and introspection. I tried to at least find a bit of solace in the long process of writing it.
