The Silent Heart

Hear the Hurt of my heart
Rising and falling as a thousand discordant cries
Culminating to a crushing crescendo. 

Hear the Hurt of my heart
An endless, senseless pounding
Agony - punctuated by each permeating beat.

Hear the Hurt of my heart
Bleeding raw
An incessant swarm, stinging and pollinating salt.

Hear the Hurt of my heart
Festering long-found hate
A torrent roaring in a turbulent sea.

Hear the Hurt 
of my - 
never mind.
