You've Locked Yourself Away.
No longer opening up, not the person you used to be.
It's impossible to open the doors you've sealed shut.
Why did you leave us?
Love is a delicate thing.
Fragile, yet stronger than any known material to man.
Pain, happiness, quarrells, joy...Just a few consequences of the emotion.
Give away your love, your heart, only to have it broken, shattered.
Why do such a thing?
For the human mind does insane things for love.
We can't control the emotions in our hearts.
However, you've already been hurt one too many times.
You've stopped loving, become cold....Locked Yourself Away.

Love: an inexplicable thing that draws two people together no matter when; why or who. This is really good! The message is clear and the emotion is strong. It flows well, too. Some people would do anything for love only to have their heart broken because of it. It's the way the human mind works. I really like this: good job :)

Excellent message. Would like to see in lines creating better flow (and easier to read) but otherwise, nice job.
