Hope

 

And forward spilleth the broken seeds of beauty

over time become whole

broke with the heart.

And lilies bloom alongside empty paths

their destinations long forgotten

while the kings of dreams find other homes.

And with the greatest ease he doth pick them up

planting many along a road to annihilation

one in a heart.

And when the plaster cast breaks wrinkles and tears stain faces

scars for eternity.

And when the light shines

or the rain falls

it brings forth acid seeping into places secret from ourselves.

Forever changed, holes with burning edges

scars on our souls, we move on.
