The scars tear deeper
Each time the reset floats
From the hidden depths
To the frightened mind
The heartbreak renewed
The tears most people stem
Once alone instead need
Stemming again and again
Each time tearing deeper
Until the returns rain light
And the path fades
And the mind is left void
Of all but shadows of night
Frankie writing from the shadows
It’s taken
The place
Where you
Dreamed
To die
Embraced
With stories
To hear
Gone
A tear fell
Then some
more
Silence
Fell
A breath
Deep
Hardly filled
The void
And you
Said
The words
The right words
To the echo
Inside
Of a crow’s
Caw
The sound
Of the crack
Along your
Heart
Sealing the
Gap the light
Once creeped
The monstrous
Roar
Of the
Torrent
Ripping
Open
Your
Soul
