Her Sounds of Endured Silence

Hold your ear on the verge of the moment… Listen as her eyelashes wisp the air closing Hear tears filling and clouding her perceptions Hearkening out as they surge a burning roll Give an ear to the silence ricocheting inside her Absorb of her desolateness Listen as she shakes uncontrollably into the night Hear her heart fracture with each muted jolting Listen to the caustic drivel of our undertones Can you hear the approaching edge of razor? Beholden to it’s resonance of steel upon skin Listen to her life as it flows trickling away…crimson Hear it slowly seeping from fingertips and elbows Recalling the sound of those burning tears flowing As twins they fall to extinguish the flame of her scourge And we… Only taking notice of her final breath Can we hear her screams of misery
