Again

Silence becomes
It's only company
As the world injects
The truth into her
Broken vein,
Not even giving it
One chance to speak.

Loneliness becomes
It's only friend
As their words
Make her numb to the
Dull pain in its
Chest.

Suffering over & over
Pouring salt into its
Blistering wounds
It falls over.
Defeated.


& cries again.

    Wow, this is a powerful poem, which I can all too well relate to. Very sad and full of angst.

    Suffering over & over
    Pouring salt into its
    Blistering wounds
    It falls over.
    Defeated.
    & cries again.

    Wonderful!
