Pressure, pressure
Weighing down
Sweat and tears leech in

Form a crust, 
Protect we must 
My depleted heart

A Catalyst begins
Quickly filling in
The crystals appear and multiply!

You unassuming geode, bursting at the seams!
When will you grab the hammer and
Take a swing at me?

Crack me open!
Spill me out!
Smash the shell away!

Strength from my sorrow,
Growth through the pain, 
Courage to bare it all

Time to commence 
The debut of 
My crystalline heart
