What words can placate

What is it they say to chase demons away? When scars inside ache, what words can placate? What meaning is found crawling on ground? When you feel you’re nothing to see. When you see what they think of thee! Barriers form and walls are built to shield a heart from the pain in the mind force fed through aged, outside guilt! The soul works so hard to prevent windows opening to what can’t see. What’s left good you see is worth protecting in thee. Time passes at last. No more sand in the glass. No more questions are found when the crawler now walks on the ground. Cold hearted maybe! But that’s the price don’t you see? Cutting ties to them is killing a life. So sharpening the blade should make the pain fade. But when you’re dead to their eyes there’s no need of disguise. No sorrow is found walking alone on the ground. Now at least free of what was trying to kill thee.
