purple knuckles had been through pain

but still it waged on

purple knuckles continued to carry the burden

on its little fingers

purple knuckles are failing

it is getting weak

so she passed it on

to another pair of purple knuckles

and what a mistake that was

purple knuckles lost her burdens along with her heart

and purple knuckles transformed into

sickly white knuckles

with all the color flowing out

purple knuckles was no more

and all that was left was the faint sound of her cries
