Taken

My soul has been ripped
Limb by limb
Set free in the current
Of warmth and wind
The rain will wash proof away
And all of the pieces will dance in the day

My hope has been torn
Bit by bit
Thrown in the ocean’s
Great, dark pit
The sand will cover what’s been done
And one day perhaps, I won’t be the one.

My heart has been pulled
Beat by beat
Forcing itself to accept defeat
Heart strings are severed by the sun
And I’m sorry my dearest, it can’t be undone

Skin has been pierced
Slice by slice
Blood trickles like rain drops
But more precise
The blade will make my bones run dry
And that is the day I’ll no longer cry
