my glass heart

and my heart shattered into pieces

little did you realise its properties

I always opened up my heart for you

and you kept digging its novelties

yes, my heart is made up of glass

so that it remains transparent

so that it shows its truthfulness

without fear of any undercurrent

and yes it is highly opaque too

so that it doesn’t pass negativity in

and retains its innocence and warmth

and doesn’t allow crooks to peep in

yes, my heart is made up of glass

so that it can show its refractive trait

by changing the direction of emotions

and segregate the love from hate

it can polarise the thoughts and feel

which may help the deep injury heal

it can filter malice and retain affection

through its total internal reflection
