Mark of the Reaper

Folder: 
Poems

Scars are reminders

Of all the hurt and pain

The injuries gained

By all the heartbreak

Every hit I take

Stored up tight

Inside I hide

My deepest cuts

They can’t be touched

They are in the soul

Millions of torn holes

In my heart

There’s a cracked part

The emptiness grows and spreads

If I’m consumed I’ll be dead

My head spinning

I hear the reaper calling

Seductively sweet

He sweeps me off my feet

Off we go

Leaving my body cold
