Analysis of Heart and Hell



At night, I sit by myself, surrounded by my thoughts and loneliness. Sometimes, I sit under the blackened stars, talking to the moon. Most of my thoughts are surrounded by you. The Earth rattles with heartache, slowly the Earth's core splits open into the trenches of hell.

That's my heart.
