I dare you

if you dare

crack the iced layer

shutting in your heart

if you dare

brake the mirrored window

concealing the view

if you dare

go beyond the practical hardships

like a tough shell

cutting your way

smash it

if you dare

and dive in

to the core

where the essence lays

if I dare to ask, "dare you?"

a pearl is not a promise.

I dare you to ask, dare I?

to crack the ice

to break the mirror

to see what's beneath

ask, dare I?

or

you already know

you are broken
