Lost

Body could take a bath
Cloth could be washed
Face could be masked
But stained heart couldn’t be cleaned easily

Wound could be stitched
Chair could be repaired
House could be renovated
But broken soul couldn’t be mended easily

Hair could grow
Glass could be replaced
Rope could be knot
But cracking faith couldn’t be set easily

Love could be searched
Money could buy
Power could cover
But precious time couldn’t be back again

Man could be killed
Evident could be erased
Truth could be forgotten
But dirty secret couldn’t be sealed forever
