The Torn Page
As my page is scribed upon and a new page is given
Its apparent that each page becomes more brittle than the last
Into each life rain must fall weighing upon athe heart
Making life arid giving lava as an oasis
I am an open book with pages pure white
Oh author direct the words scribed upon my heart
Words scarring deep within the pages of cloud white
A page that is filled with memories
Pages also filled with anguish and pain
Wrinkled by feeble attempts to forget
Blackened by blood barring the heart from feeling
Beware the torn page which may not just cut the finger
But may also destroy the heart
