...

Do not seek a smile from my lips
They are tainted by the loss I have gained
Notice how I won't look you in the eye?
My heart is yours and yours alone
Don't hand it back to me.
I told you it was for you.
Keep it.
I'll stitch myself up later.
The fragments of my mind still have to be replaced.
The ones I had are numb and faded.
Denial.
My innocence is in anguish.
