Hearts Erased

“Here.”

Here is the key
But you won’t unlock it.

Here is the map
But you won’t explore it.

Here is the truth
But you won’t accept it.

Here is your life
But you won’t live it.

Here is your destiny
But you won’t step into it.

Here is your freedom
But you won’t leave the cage.

Here is my heart
But you won’t make it real.

Here is my soul
But you won’t join eternally.

Here is my patience
But you won’t stop stretching it.

Here is our noose.
