In the heart of men
lies a jar of poison,
Pouring out bitterness,
spreading everywhere.
A toxic tide that overflows,
Choking love, and drowning care.
In shadows deep,
where whispers creep,
In silence, out of sight,
is a hidden truth to keep.
A secret shame, a buried pain,
and soul corrupted, is forever stained.
But still, a glimmer of hope remains.
A chance to heal and to break the chains.
To shatter darkness,
and bring to light,
The hidden truth,
and end, the endless night.
