  • February 5th, Friday morning, purple dawn... A moment like a poem, you wish you could hold it... I shut my eyes like it's frozen... it's gone when I open...

Pure

Was my heart ever pure?

Did I ever have a chance?

Could the end of me happen in the beginning?

They tell me Time heals all

No one speaking of the scars

The twisted, tortured flesh under my skin

The wounds contorting, changing my heart

They made me cold within

The memories like dreams

Haunt my thoughts

Seeming more like nightmares

My heart was broken and no one cared

Quietly being murdered

From the inside out

They ate my soul alive

Too selfish to see I was there

A little girl, innocent

The horrible cycle of sorrow

I have no relief from despair

No means to an end

Internal suffering is often the worst kind. The emotion in this piece is very dark and seems like a faint cry for help. It is faint because they haven't helped you before...so maybe now won't be the time either. I hope you find your place of healing and become a happier, brighter, smiler on the inside. May the kudos be with you :)

The poem reads to me like a blade. Honest with its actions. Known for pain. Fearful to be close to. Gripped only from a certain angle. And a threat to those that easily bleed.

In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in poetry, it's the exact opposite.

Franz Kafka (1883-1924) Czech writer.
