Poem by me

You wish not to see their other sides

Not to face the other face

Time and time again you learn

But truly you can never learn

Your heart is big and weak

And the soul remains open

Open for life

Tough smashed so many times

You wish that time would heal

What others keep on breaking

Taking what's not theirs to take

Not theirs to keep

Feeding it to the lions

You wish not to see the other sides

Not the ugly anymore

The truth still lies beneath

Not even that deep

At least you lived as you believed
