“The chill of what I won't feel gnaws at my present heart.”
“I'll lock my heart away deeper ..if I do that ..I won't have to feel pain outside or inside .. or the fear I won't have to feel anything at all !”
“I feel my heart ache, but I've forgotten what that feeling means.”
“I cannot tell my heart what to feel.”
“I feel that if I kept it secret it might grow in my mind (as poisonous things grow in the dark) and take its place with the other terrible thoughts that gnaw me”
“My heart is strong, I will not fail, I won't be wronged, I will prevail.”
