They'd say her heart is heavy, but she has no heart. She lost it a long time ago. They tried to find it, her family and her friends, but it was all in vain. It was gone forever. It was probably caught in a fire or ran over several times. It'd be no use to her now even if they did find it. She grew up. She grew strong with out a heart. Her brain grew along with her body. Where her heart should be she grew another brain. This brain made her knowledge able to expand along the world. She was blessed it seemed. She gained wisdom that was far great than most other people. She inspired not only herself but other people as well. Boys looked at her and thought she was an angel. Though when they confessed this to her, she simply looked over her shoulder and laughed, for there were no wings on her back. She patted her own head, there was no halo either. Besides she had no soul anyway, she could be neither a demon or an angel even if she wanted to be. Some wished they could love her but she didn't know feelings. She just knew thoughts and facts. She over analyzed. She knew mankind couldn't be trusted, yet she gave the benefit of doubt. Deceiving people drew her near. She tried and tried but she knows better to fall into something. She always kept one foot in and the other out so if she needed to she could step back and see what was really going on. To no avail, her mind had to be right. She was acting stupidly. She learned her lesson. Some men had learned she had no heart, and thought they'd take advantage, but that was not so. She learned and she put an end to it all. She will never trust again. Though, her chest feels like it has been ripped open with some one's bare hands. Was someone trying to find her heart? Did they think she still had one? Fools. Now her mind hurts, her body aches, and she has confused many by speaking in riddles. But maybe all is well, because she will be able to say "it's not you, it's me" in the most truthful way anyone will ever be able to say it.
