Heart, have you forgotten how the sun smiles,
birds whisper songs of spring love,
while you are with someone whose eyes are just
as bright, if not brighter, than the starburst's grin?

Heart, have you not finally released the snake's coil,
the immature villain whose heart was pure before you
corrupted it, before he corrupted you with promises
of lust and believing you were his and that was it?

Heart, are you at all reluctant of the forgotten memories
of a firework shared only summers ago, a firework lasting three months
in which the only thing you can remember with ease is
the name of this spark, and not a thing more or him or the once 'we'?

Heart,what means all of this? Have you disconnected with the mind,
leaving the good memories behind, the bad lingering like smoke,
and the present but a faint gleam when you are not alone in the dark?
Have you been consumed my too much love, or too many lies?
