Problems unsolved,
Fill the bottle of my heart.
Problems unchecked,
Force a smile.

When confronted,
Uncertainty steps in.
Faith flutters away,
Feelings are hurt.

But one's heart is only this big,
I try to close the top,
Force everything inside,
Simply hoping for the best?

Thinking I can solve my own problems,
Builds up the pressure.
Emotions eventually flare,
Love and hate present themselves.

Too fast too late,
A scar is left.
Marked for life,
Marked for ever.
