As a scalded cat shrieks and flees
so a wounded heart shrinks within
to curling tightness of hurting ballblind to sunlight
deaf to melodies
muting its cry

A hurt heart is prone to constricting. Hopefully healing will come to make it beat again.

I really like the cat image. Though I actually find their shrieks entertaining in small(er) doses.
