How can I see the light after my heart has lost its identity? How can my heart penetrate all this darkness around it, cross mountains of pain and suffering, and traverse rough paths along which it has suffered so much?
Our hearts, so pained, have lost their identity, as if all feelings have died. Our emotions have become numb, and our paths have become lost, as if we are lost between good and bad. Nothing concerns us anymore, and we no longer have the desire for any new feelings.
With so much darkness surrounding us, light no longer finds its way into our hearts. We no longer expect anything good, and we are not ready for new feelings. We can not expect the best from people or from life itself.
How can our hearts find their purpose after all the meanings we once believed in have been lost? How can we rebuild trust?
Life has always been so harsh on us, so how can we imagine it extending a caring hand?
How can our hearts overcome the darkness of years and years? How can we forget the most difficult memories?
How can we love from the bottom of our hearts again, be loyal again, feel safe after all this fear, and feel serenity, security, loyalty, and honesty again?!
