My heart
Closed for so long
Is cracking open again.
The beating had slowed,
As my heart contracted.
Feeling small,
The outer edges became thick
And hard,
Impervious.
It only wanted safety.
It wept quietly inside of me,
Begging me not to expose it again
To
The lies
The deceptions
The rewriting of history
The duplicity.
And so I didn’t.
I won’t.
There is nothing left to say or do.
Lies exposed, deceptions revealed.
I breathed, in relief.
And walked away.
My heart is happy, today.
It opened one eye,
and began to soften again
In preparation
For living
No longer fearing dying
At my hand.
No longer having to fear
Another onslaught of
Lies
Deceptions
