Cracking

I safeguard his secrets
but mine slip through the cracks
A kind man speaks cruelly
I just can't relax

Everyone means well
But intention means little
My heart's a mess
My soul is brittle

"It hurts!" I scream
But nobody hears
They hide their hearts
As they cover their ears

Cracking is inevitable
I suppose

When it's too much to bear
And nobody cares
I crack and snap
I wallow and rot
