Over Time

They say it’s best to speak what’s on your mind.

I must say that I agree, hearts break the worse in the most silent of times.

The eyes are the windows to our soul—

a glimpse of feelings, so hidden & untold.

A bond so close, the thought of it’s loss is why it‘s protected at all costs & enclosed.

Those boxes & containers that hold what we don’t want damaged the most—

always get weathered & erode.

That’s where the problem lies, just like stored away things, feelings eventually become exposed.

Two fools who don’t realize they did the opposite of what their minds promised their hearts, over time.
