Powerless

kitty the naughty poet

Weeping from blood filled eyes

black as moonless night

flowing down cheeks in streams of rivered speech

unheard in the depths of shadows

tangling the broken essence in threads of nightmare dreams

surrounded by the skeletons of a traumatic past

reaching through the scorching earth

to claw at the broken essence

and the smokey whispers from demons inside

powerless to scream and shout

unable to let go with no mouth
