The TowerA Poem by ElizaBWords behind walls " Breathing " Outside, Ice will fall Against Their delicate tones. Words, Misheard, I rock, alone, This mind absurd, Birds, Flicker Wretched as the night, This heartbeat Take flight, Quicker - Wrap this shawl Around my bones, I am Bleeding " Against the white Watch me crawl " A hateful sight. Keep the flower, Violets abloom, Dust the vase And this room. The darkest hour Draws near - Inside - This fragmented tower " I disappear. You held me, Once. Forgotten heart " Weighed in stone, Our worlds apart, Last breathe alone " As the sun sets Gentle leaves rust, My violet sweats, I watch, In lust, Within rotting bones. Flesh, notch. See me fall, Beneath the dust. To whispered chatter, Our blood stained trust, Make windows shatter. Shreds in skin - Your name etched, Against snow so thin, My hand outstretched. © 2017 ElizaB |
