Crimson Ribbon

Crimson Ribbon

 

Notice how she hangs there

Golden

Beaten like some campaign

Medal

Suspended

From a crimson ribbon frayed

 

 

Now then,

Sshh.. and truly listen

To these words of mine with caution

 

 

These are not just simple 

Raindrops falling 

These are real tears, truly shed

For broken women everywhere, 

Taken, and sometime later laid to rest

Upon said, crimson ribbon frayed …
