My emotions are like an open book,
Open to be read by all who care to look.
Laying there smack in the middle,
Is something I need to keep apart.
I got a lock to close this chapter,
But I dare not throw away the key.
It dangles around my neck for all to see,
But I know not why it happens to me.
Many people have gotten close,
But all have ended with the same note.
Their hearts guarded by walls of trust,
None of which I had trouble holding the key.
But my heart has started to turn dark,
It's flesh hardening like tree bark.
I wonder if it still beats deep within my chest,
For all it knows is pain and ache.
Am I here just to be tormented with dreams,
Or can I come within inches just to fall from it's grasp?
A small family is what I desire,
One of my own isn't too much to admire?
A wife whom loving comes easy,
And a daughter that haunts my dreams.
A single fire burns deep in my cold heart,
The one that isn't easy to reach.
None but a small glimmer of hope,
A small ray of light escapes it's shell.
The one nobody else has seen,
For it is one that nobody has grasped the key.

Just something that I wanted to post after my rant, which I was writeing in my head long before the journal post.
I don't expect many people to see this, just something I wanted to get off of my chest.
