Haunted

Standard

Always,

The girl with ghosts in her eyes.

Haunted.

Certain words are spoken

And her gaze is broken.

She is gone.

Triggers deep inside tripped by

A sentiment.

Shame ensues.

A song

And her heart is racing.

A car backfires

And

The longing,

The ache for safety carries her away

Into the

Other side

Where no one can reach her.

Choking as she tries to speak,

Tendrils from her gut

Pulling her breath back inside.

Back to hide.

No,

Mere

Words will not do

For they cannot be found.

Unforgiving Walls

Standard

I close my eyes,

I breath you in.

Beauty becomes my soul.

Your arms embrace me,

Hold me still.

My breath,

For once,

Is whole.

My heart is beating

A rhythm true.

A sound I’ve held so tight.

My soul is lifting

Weightless.

Free.

Never has it been so high.

I am singing a new song.

One my heart vaguely recalls.

One that has been hidden

Behind

Unforgiving

Walls.
