For years I believed I have sovereignty over me That the power to choose whether or not someone could get inside me Is solely on my hands Perhaps my heart was wrong, after all. For years I believed The gates were made of steel As strong as the power of heavens That whoever tries to intrude Cannot push through it Perhaps my heart overestimated its power For years I believed That I could live without the flutters of the heart Without the swirling and swarming of lights and deluge emotions I believed I am on my own That my hold on my guard has reached the strongest peak Perhaps my own heart has betrayed me.
