  Lethal Love

I am lone-man;
empty-man;
every-man
torn...
by the vicious,
fragile beauty
of wounded love
wordless;
hopeless;
loveless

you avenge yourself
on clear hearts.
I am drained
loveless;
hopeless;
wordless;
I am every-man;
empty-man;
lone-man.

Clearly written...could feel the sting.
The writing style you chose sets the tone very well for this piece.

I'm waiting for the medics to transfuse
this person...bleeding is an understatement.

thanks everyone!
(I don't intend to 'voyage on the dark    
side' too often!....this 'write' was simply self-catharsis)
