1.)
I hid my heart in a concrete box
Without any holes or openings
Where sunlight can seep through
And my heart didn't know
That there was something out there
Other than darkness

2.)
I hid my heart in a concrete box
And locked it as tight as I could
I swallowed the key
Now I think it is stuck
Somewhere inside my chest
Because there is an ache right there
And it hurts to breathe

3.)
I hid my heart in a concrete box
And buried it beneath
The center of my left palm
I have spent countless hours
Staring at my hand
And wondering why
It was bruised and bleeding

4.)
I hid my heart in a concrete box
Without holes or openings
I locked it as tight as I could
And buried it beneath
The center of my palm
Thinking it would be safer that way
Thinking that nothing can hurt me that way

I hid my heart in a concrete box
In time it had suffocated

I never noticed that it was beating
Until it stopped
