Touch me

shadowbones

We are so bored in ordinary life

Wanting more

Starving for war

Not acceptable truth

Held under boot

Fear of rejection

Beneath the surface

Grime, crime and lies

Unfurling slowly

Under our skin

Waiting for redemption 

Praying for sin

Twisted, tormented, universal truth

Slime, bile and wasted nutrients 

Another crying wound

What is left of me and us

Left for me to trust?
