Growing hearts
in greenhouses.
Voices inside reflect
off glass panes:
light beams on mirrors
echoed within one civilisation.

Throwing stones,
breaking and entering.
Stars spread fingers
from city epicentres
as the interior
awakes.

Hearts fall,
melting into the earth
to grow roots.
Voices escape
through cracks
and are released from society.
First draft. I tried to make the title obvious to help people get it.
The points most likely to need clarifying:
~Teenagers/young people are the hearts.
~The breaking and entering is done by the influences on their individual lives.
~The greenhouses give the sense of the worlds most young people live, no matter where they live: the things they see from behind the glass is not neccessarily what they look/feel/are like.

And people in glasses shouldn't throw stones! they should also wear clothes, as K.L quite rightly says...
