Mark of the Reaper

Folder: 
my poems

scars are reminders

of all the hurt and pain

the injuries gained

by all the heartbreak

every hit I take

stored up tight

inside I hide

my deepest cuts

they can’t be touched

they are in the soul

millions of torn holes

in my heart

there’s a cracked part

the emptiness grows and spreads

if I’m consumed I’ll be dead

my head spinning

I hear the reaper calling

seductively sweet

he sweeps me off my feet

off we go

leaving my body cold
