PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Standing stiff and still

these words cannot scorned mouth fill

a reserved torment so encrypted

scientists and psychologists

couldn't decode the tissues

collected from the drill

Layers of rage and self-reduction

confusion and corruption

corrosion and self-disruption

buried deep inside me now

Donning no protective cloak anymore

even as considerable time has elapsed

Remembering all the venom and mishaps

The concept of sharing the tornado in my mind

with another in my life

seems like a storm no one could weather

given the option, like birds of vaulted feather

they'd fly away so swiftly

But this Etsy soul longs for two

hand-crafted from a hulking trunk of youth

into the charred carvings after fire-laden tools

became so recklessly common and couth

I must process a scarred truth

so my words on the page

applying actionable wisdom

can assuredly convey

a heart revolted by blind support

pleading for no deceptions

and no crooked blood sport

If this heart to bloom

and live wholly in display

my best relief is within the clarity

that within the belief

a looming remedy relay
