Face surfacing in the mirror gasping at the stale air surrounding her Her eyes are wide tinged with shamed disbelief blind and stinging with stagnant tears Their putrid wetness floods her pores clinging to traitorous flesh She chokes on the poison the poison of her weakness Fingers curled with bitter memories frantic hooks flailing weakly against delf-defeating claws They tear at pathetic defenses ripping crimson canyons flowing stark against white flesh Pulling her down silent lips parted in a usless plea she slips into darkness the darkness that is you.... Freedom of expression is the watch word... |

This so sorrowful and compelling. A true rendition of the pain that dwells in the heart, and our terrible inability to forget the wrongs inflicted upon us. I love your words, and i pray your heart to soon be healed. |
