Exposed In Darkness

Memories became trapped in the shade of an eclipse,
Light that they once held gone, buried in feelings of transgressed sin. 
All hope bled out of me through the scars in which you had left.
   Slowly my heart started to shrivel and desiccate from within.



*”Exposed in Darkness.” is a four-line verse taken from my original poem, “The Falling.” Date: December 2nd, 2020. Intended for the entry of the Liberum Divisa 3 contest.*
