Open heart

Updated: Nov 27, 2019

Once a girl had an open heart.. for people to come and go as they please.. she was naive and not much of age 

but with time she grew tired of her heart getting played


So she grew walls and thorny fields to keep the damaged heart out of reach

Years went by as she felt numb to feelings heart was stone cold and neglected, yet beautifully treasured in one piece.

Mind at peace, heart in one piece.. you may have imagined with a story ending with a happy treat

But it continued...


A knight in shining armor knowing the secrets of an enchanting treasure..

Lurked around for the greed of such rare coincidence

Brokedown the thorny fields with deceiving symphony of lies

Took one brick after the other from the walls with promises that were never meant to be kept alive


With years that have passed by, she was tired in keeping her walls tight

was forced to bring down everything she has ever built one piece at a time

But at least she was happy and she was human again...

 

The enchanting treasure was out in the reach and was stolen again from her, 

Blinded by the symphony of lies and promises she kept being a slave for the knight in shining armor, attending to every need 

and helped him build up his ego and greed.


But the black magic faded away and she started realizing the truth.. it was too late when she found out the heart was ripped and in pieces again

The torturing never stopped and she was robbed of her freedom and peace


Finally had enough of this play

She tried her best to put this thief in his place... confronted him of his sins only for him to look in her eyes and deny them with such ease.

But one day she gathered her courage.

Took off the mask of the pretend knight just to find out who he really was... 


A man with no beliefs but full of greed and sins.. a man who has buried his own feelings in a grave 

now haunting the earth to collect other rare treasures.

Bottled the broken pieces for his own pleasure

tearing thorny fields and breaking walls was his forte 


But only a few knew his real intentions and she had to break her own heart to know this hard truth, just imagine.

She took the remaining pieces to her hand and ran away from this tragedy 

Far away from everyone and everything she ever loved.. hurt and deceived by the only one who she trusted


She questioned her life she questioned herself and where it went all wrong but she was clueless

She only had pure intentions to see a man being happy and strong because of her.. but only to receive nothing in return, not even her own happiness...

She gave a chance to see if giving away her treasured heart was worth it.. but it was not... the wrong time and the wrong people were her biggest mistake... 


It took time and great healing powers to build up her heart again.. it was not easy but she managed her way to make things right again...

The lesson she learned was to look for people with affection, not possession. 

Maybe when the time is right she will unleash her heart again.
