When Will You Come Back Home? It's been a while, but we're still old friends. With the scars leading the way down faces, past smiles, passed over throats choking on words, to hearts broken by days of silence. It's been a while, but we're still old friends. |

let me encourage you when you read this to go line by line. I focused on form on this and when you realize the certain style, it takes on a different meaning. Thanks for taking time to read this. |

Interesting use of words. Your poem is like a double-edged blade, twice as powerful than the norm. Did you intend for "on words, to hearts broken" to be a pun to "onwards to hearts broken"? As assassin shouldn't fall in love. |
