![]() KintsugiA Poem by Ashley Blair
My body's aching from the bruises on my bones
They seem to echo in my soul There's a lonely room locked away in my brain It's secrets lie in little lines drawn across my veins I've fallen to the ground too many times With thoughts of flowers above my grave in mind But darling if you save me I think I'll stay all night I don't believe in god enough to think there's a place That waits before me with shining light and open gates But I believe in you And that you'll say the words right If you can stretch your love enough around my breaking heart I think I'll stay awhile I've been waiting all this time to have my cracks filled with gold, Maybe the sun will grace my scars that show I've been exposed. Will you pierce my skin with pinpricks of light And look after me in the darkness like the moon I don't want the sunshine because it hurts my wounded skin If you can see my naked soul through my vicious marks I might let you in But I think the lucidity of the night will be alright If you care enough to get me through this I think I'll stay for life. I've been waiting all this time to have my cracks filled with gold, Maybe the sun will grace my scars that show I've been exposed. I'm going to stay until the universe calls me home. © 2015 Ashley BlairAuthor's Note
