Splinters of the Heart

Splinters of the Heart

We gather

Sceneries in woods

Of the mind

That remind

Of days gone by walking through

The thick and the thin

 

Like gardens

Hanging on the edge

Of a cliff

Amidst riff

Panoramic views submerge

Growing of the urge

 

Oblivion

An eight letter word

Becomes herd

That refrain

From the expression of pain

Their bodies corpses

 

The dark crawl

Dead embers ashes

Light flashes

Not within

Their lack of feelings akin

To breath of undead

 

Sorrowed lead

Plastered smiles in white

The empaths

Faith in light

Keeping Hope through Times that smite

Words that decompose

 

Recompose

Splinters of the Heart

There are ways

Etched in Soul

Knowledge of how you are whole

Beyond the fences
