My Achilles' Heel

My Achilles' Heel
It is that memory
That I buried
A thousand feet under
My so called intangible thoughts

My Achilles' Heel
It is that portrait
That I have painted
Black and white
Concealed by my towering pride

My Achilles' Heel
It is that word
That I dare not utter
A word so warm yet so cold
Eradicated from my vocabulary

My Achilles' Heel
It is your name
A word I dare not utter
Vanished from my memory
Forever.
