Day 16
"Hidden Banes, Silent Pains"
Oh, human hearts, how fragile they seem.
With a chink in the armor, a fatal seam
Each one harboring a lurking disease.
A thorn in the flesh, a bane that won't ease.
Like the Trojan hero, we all have our own
Achilles' heel, a weak spot to bemoan
It could be love, pride, or fear that ensnares, or a sin, a vice, that the soul impairs
We hide behind a veil of strength and might, but deep within, we fight a gruesome fight
For disease, weakness, a foe that spares none, we must kneel
And learn to heal, our own Achilles' heel.
