State of constant confusion!

From deepest depths
of love's remorse
From whence my heart
strayed from it's course
Within these walls
I hang my head
Stumbling through
visions of dread
I feel the heat
upon my back
I know you're peering
through the cracks
The cracks upon
this broken heart
This heart you left
all torn apart
The love once shared
now broken and frayed
All but ashes of
rot and decay

my goodness Jeff...
you do indeed bleed from deep places within..
this is such an emotive piece...
you have expressed so much emotion in a few well chosen and poetically spoken words.
Im glad you reposted it..cause I missed it before...now it goes in my file  
take care Jeff-gator

Jeffrey, this is indeed a soul-searching piece. Good to see you!

Jeffrey,

Haunting piece my friend.  I see you have been digging deep within.  Well done.
