This paper heart,
𝐶𝑟𝑢𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑑, 𝑓𝑙𝑎𝑚𝑚𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒.
A hypnotized hostage,
Drunk on fear before beloved flames,
To which it pledges its fixed gaze.
Temporary as this paper heart may be,
Half unfolded,
It cannot help but let slip,
The whole truth,
In all its permanence,
as,
𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑎𝑝𝑒𝑟 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡 𝑠ℎ𝑒𝑑𝑠
An unpolished
𝐃𝐢𝐚𝐦𝐨𝐧𝐝

This paper heart,
𝐶𝑟𝑢𝑚𝑝𝑙𝑒𝑑, 𝑓𝑙𝑎𝑚𝑚𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑒.
A hypnotized hostage,
Drunk on fear before beloved flames,
To which it pledges its fixed gaze.
Temporary as this paper heart may be,
Half unfolded,
It cannot help but let slip,
The whole truth,
In all its permanence,
as,
𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑠 𝑝𝑎𝑝𝑒𝑟 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑟𝑡 𝑠ℎ𝑒𝑑𝑠
