Triptych number two.
There appears to be a hole in my soul where my heart once was.
I'm sure, one day, it will close over, scab up and scar.
With attention and care the wound may not be too unsightly.
I cannot lay blame at anyone else's feet as I am the cause.
I generate the stress through insecurity and go too far.
With time my dreams may stop tormenting me nightly.
My love, when released, seems to be a destructive force.
It burns like wildfire leaving all blackened and charred.
With patience I hope to contain it, though it's unlikely.
