Careful not to get too close
don't want to let anyone in.
For I am afraid to love or be loved
fear of the pain I would feel.
Pain that might give me the slightest sign of life
I prefer to remain pulse-less.
Devoid of emotion
and of conscience.
Gazing into the sun for answers
the intense light is blinding.
Burning me to ash
blowing into the wind.
I could let someone in but I won't
cause I don't feel at home on the inside.
