Hardened Heart
When you look at me you do not see me anymore If you did then you would know The light in my eyes left long ago A fake smile is all that remains Sharp-spoken words became daggers piercing a heart once full of love Now hardened from neglect Closed off in loneliness It beats still but who is there to care Copyright © 2022 Christine Bolton - Poetry for Healing All Rights Reserved Word Prompt Sharp - RDP Image by Dimitris Vetsikas from Pixabay
