A Forever Splintered Heart (Free verse) by MacFrantic
Flaking off integrity from faces
Sown with satisfaction
Passing over life's infractions
Living hour to hour
Struck by Cupid's arrow under
Observation so befitting
Ugly love debunked by spitting
Passions turning sour
Unrelenting cries of desperation
Laced with tortured sorrow
Threatening our plans tomorrow
Fraught with falling grace
Neon sign above the door has given
Less than it has gotten
Sins of flesh and lovers rotten
Flaws unmasked unspoken
Forever splintered heart is often
Fleeing to a destination
Hazy reddened concentration
Bleeding never broken
