Hello

It has been years since I knew who I was.
What I stood for,
and now I fall, I believe no longer.
I protect no one.

Inked in Steel

Push through this skin
and paint a picture.

Finger painting
with blood.
It was all a young girl knew.

I am trapped in the soft prison
of my own flesh.
The wardens have wrapped my heart in wire.

Tied down by the demons
that hunt us.
I don’t mind being another taken,
one more.
