A Sisters Tears

Broken hearts Black as tar A sister’s love burned away Forever replaced with irreversible hate Reach for light before the night forever takes Your soul away Fight the night, seek the light Sisters’ love Can be an unbreakable bond A soul slowly baptized In Lucifer’s detestation Chipped away until only the shell remains Once sisters bathing in the rays of life Separated, in pain, for losing the way One sister reaching for the other The other sister stretching her hand down Down into the very depths of hell Were Lucifer holds her very soul And basks in the very pain He so easily created Lucifer prince of pain King of darkness Walks among the broken hearts Seeping in his blackened tar Until the shell is all you see And the soul is but a memory

Thank you for the honor, it means so much to me, and my father taught me good poetry engages the mind great poetry moves the soul, and I try to poor my soul out in every piece I write, also as painful as it was to read it was also painful to write for every word is true. Sarah Jo
