A life of scraps, a soul overthrown.

Love's cruel mirror, the heart entwined.

The Wreckage We Wore

Of my blue-eyed monster, sharp as a jewel.

A maze of reflections, each one a different shade
Of truth and lies, of light and darkest space

Tears like fractured glass betrayed me,
Stabbed my face, into a dry oasis,
My body, overthrown by the love of you,
Yet my soul, still untouched by your rain…...

As he tries to take this life to cancer.
