Tell me when the metal scrapes wood

Announce it to the world

Remind me of gentle waves

Of jagged rocks

Tell me when you sting

Call me when your aching fades

The crisp apple air

Of a metal wire

Tell me when the glass tears cotton

Whisper it to golden meadows

Of storm

Of pain

Desiccated thoughts

Torn open by the wisps

The metal seams threaten to rip

Tell me when the sun is no more

A gentle breeze

Of fiery dark scars

Brought by the smell of promise and hope

Remind me of the taut gloom

Shadows tense

Of grime

Of metal tinge

Tell me when the metal scrapes wood

Deep

Rash

Hurdling fresh screams
