SOULS SHATTER
Strip me down
To what I cannot see.
Blind me to this reality.
A reality where I ask;
Can a soul shatter?
Can a heart break?
Just how much can
Ones self-take?
Lay my bare skin down.
Upon frozen ground.
Trembling I allow the
Cold to sink into my soul.
Until the shivers grow out of my control.
Where is the warmth;
that once sheltered me?
That once set me free?
That kept me safe.
Will it return?
I’m beginning to lose my faith.
How did lips once so tempting and sure.
Turn so cold and unpure?
As my heart gives into the frigid air.
With a pain too strong to bare.
The beating slows.
Until only the soul knows.
Knows of the sorrow.
That yes; A heart can break.
And sadly a soul can shatter.
