Silencing the Silenced (Free verse) by seanlb1
shoot the arrow
make me bleed
kill me now
unknowingly
i see the shadow
of a dripping wound
light the darkness
set the mood
i don't want to die by your hands
i don't want to see you last
i don't need this dangerous outpour
drowning in your barrage of letdowns
die said the killing girl
to the eyes crying blood
a hand moved to the cheek
and wiped it all away
she said cry no more my love
but the eyes just faded
her eyes flowed in despair
nevermore would his heart need mending
i want to see the other life
where crying is natural
dying is natural
secretly hiding what fears you the most
you know you should tell
fear of loss of a softness
fear of loss of what matters
distilling the tears in the heart never ending
breaking that which breaks the easiest
