Your words rip into me,
Jagged claws shred my existence.
Eternal bleeding I bleed internally
A piece of my heart
has broken off.
Go on, leave me,
tattered and forlorn.
The only welcoming sight
the muddy sky that welcomes my soul.
Hope I know not, nor shall I fear.
The disillusion of elusive hope
fools me no more.
I lay my head upon your breast,
pray to God to save my soul.
My whispered prayers muffled,
by the pillow my nails dig into.
I dare not to dream.
For that piece of me that broke off
has just fallen into place.
Another word from you,
and I’ll be right where I was,
desolate and grey.
Go on, leave me.
Leave the pieces behind.

Thank you ATW! Your comments are doing wonders for my self-esteem…. which has always been pretty low regarding my poetry :/
