Ties That Bind, Scars That Hurt

Ties that bind, scars that hurt Float around in my life Shadows of isolation sprinkle my face Blades of power hold my mouth Words of silence cannot escape The thunderous ploy of the heart Ties that bind, scars that hurt remain strong! Hearts that bleed are hearts that feed off the weight of love The sudden shift of emotion illuminates the darkness The singleness of a passion electrifies the soul Nevertheless, the cold shift of isolation keeps the mission purpose driven! Ties that bind, scars that hurt remain strong! I can smile now, knowing my heart is bleeding Feeding off every abnormality and Revealing the centrality of all hidden thoughts! I can smile now, knowing my heart is bleeding It is a comfort worth exploring; it is an oddity worth refining It is a love worth mentioning and above all, it is a heart worth bleeding! Ties that bind, scars that hurt remain strong Mark Frank Copyright 2022
