inside the shadows

Venom. Like stainless steel parting skin. Striking in her blood. She’s bleeding. Bleeding to change. To change all the world around her. If just for an instant. It’s still worth it.

She just wants somewhere to go. Somewhere that isn’t here. Somewhere where no one knows. Where she’s been.

Nowhere. There’s no place to go. Not for her. Oh no. No one wants her. No one wants the girl in black. Lying at their fragile feet. Please. Won’t somebody take her. Take her away. Save her. Save her from herself. She needs your help. She can’t do this on her own. Somebody help her.  

Silence. Nothing moves. Nothing stays. Just. Silent. Hush the crying infants. Cradle them in their mothers’ arms. Hold them. Like they’ve never been held. Hold them. Like she’s never been held. Cradle their gentle face. Wipe away their glistening tears. Hold them.

Ultimately.

This disease is all that’s saving her.  



So cut me into pieces and tape me into something beautiful...

I swear, reading this a second time just makes it even better. Tori I really like this poem. Keep up the writing hon!

Hold on,

When I see your smile, and I know it’s not for me, that’s when I’ll miss you.

WOW, this is just wow, I'm speechless.

With God I am happy; sadness has no say in my life.

"Save her from myself."

Is this supposed to say 'herself' or are you like trying to kill her??? Lol...Sorry just a thought.

I enjoyed this. From the looks of it, I'm not the only one.

I love this poem its amazing but you do know that some people can't see red right?

The number one thing in acting is honesty: If you can fake that you've got it made.
