I once had a bear holding a heart,
now the heart is used as a needle saver
so they don't get lost.
And it makes me sad to feel that
my heart feels like that one,
sticking needles,
marks,
punctures everywhere that are irreparable
and no matter how hard I try,
they will never leave me.
Of course, you leave,
you disappear into the existence
of other people
and I remain here,
feeling that in the end it seems
I am once again
left alone in the void
with all this affection.
It's nothing new,
but I had sworn to myself that
that last time
I would make my heart one of iron.
But everything seems to feel deeper,
the needles are getting lost
and there are no ways to remove them,
isn't it?
It seems to me that
you might love to take my heart,
leave many cracks in it
and then leave without listening to it,
don't you?
