It Sings

What is such a painful thing
That shuts your heart up while it sings
That takes away the gifts life brings
That feels like an open wound which stings
It takes away your life and soul
It leaves you in the rain so cold
Exposes horror stories untold
You are now part, no longer whole

You'd rather die than to stare
At this thing, yet it's so fair
Such deadly poison in the air
A burden you can no longer bear

Your heart pounds while you shake
As your love puts your heart at stake
Guesses you no longer have to make
This painful thing is a heartbreak
