Hurt
Devil that tore inside my soul
Ripped to tread for life not to know
Taken what’s mine block out of mind
Friend of hurt who stole my kind
Love so near the secrets to hide
Began the day when sat in the chair
Cutting to fall piece by piece
Breathing of shivers palms no see
Stair by stair tremble of steps
Blind of fog shadow of night
Locked inside no words of sound
Blackened out the tears that drowned
Healing of grief repressed to show
Marks of truth on body to hide
Head of sores the wall that stands
Alone to freeze eternity land
Freeze to stick the times to show
Heart no beat veins that blocked
Flashing back bare foot to run
Gasp of breath when my life was done
Child of me grown up of fright
Hiding of life that was not right
Wanting to voice but frightened to tell
lies to keep or going to hell
