Porcelain Heart

When I grew up
I kept hearing
That I'd be alright
I slept safely
Without caring
Through the childhood nights
The feeling was sneaking
Into the room
Laying in bloom

Troubled voices
Silent swearing
You were falling sick
It grabbed heartstrings
And kept tearing
We could not predict
The feeling was bleakening
Your brave face
Your warm grace

It took you all apart
Making place
To unveil your porcelain heart
Like a brute on fine art

Years from now
Will we rejoice
Or look back
With remorse
Questioning how we
Did end up
On collision course
The feeling is creeping
Up our spine
Undermining

We can pray
For all our conflicts
Someday to resolve
We can build
For all our convicts
A runway to evolve
The feeling is sleeping
Inside our mind
We're venturing behind
The lines

How did we drift apart
We can't deny
What we were
But now we are
Fools relearning the art
