Stone Cold Stare

the ravens have gathered to pick up the pieces left by the wolf A soul left in shreds by a stone cold stare and a heartless goodbye another victim fooled by a sly smile and warm loving words he was gone before she realized she was bleeding

Thanks Lindsay, you are right, I've read you can forgive and forget before you can trust again.

Hey, thanks for including me in the third line of the first stanza! Seriously, very evocative, resonant images here, Mr. Poet. Thank you, Gershon
