Alexithymia ... Solid

Today's word is "ey-let-suh-THAHY-mee-uh ... Psychiatry. difficulty in experiencing, expressing, and describing emotional responses. (Dictionary.com)

Solid
Sitting on an island,
Selfmade, and all alone,
Alexithymia,
A heart made out of stone.

No one can come near him,
He thinks that he can bear,
All the world's trials,
While he's sitting there.

Dispute his outer armor,
Life's goodness may prevail,
Growing stealthily within,
Opening his jail.
