There's a door inside,
of my heart,
bolted shut.

No one in,
no one out.

Many before have tried,
to break it down,
to dismantle it.

But no one can,
get inside.

There's a key,
somewhere deep,
inside my chest.

Reach inside,
see what you find.

No promises,
you might be,
disappointed.

When you find,
nothing there.

I'm an empty soul,
a broken promise,
a bad cold.

I'm everything,
you hate.

So leave me,
let me be,
closed up.

I'll open my door,
when I'm ready.
