I've noticed you there.
You come in little drops, enter my mind, poison my heart.
Silently, sneaky, piercing every layer of my skin until you get to my soul.
You'll spread your evil through every cell of my body.
My smile will get cynical, my eyes those unloving wrinkles around them,
my look will get sharp.
I'll start seeing evil everywhere.
I'll shut my doors and wait for the next catastrophe.
It won’t hurt me this time.
There will be a wall between me and the world.
My happiness, in case I reach it again, will forever be superficial and numb.
It will be empty happiness, sticking on the outside of my body, never being able to penetrate and fulfill me truly.
I've noticed you there, bitterness.
I've waited for you.
Why don't you come in?
