Under Skin

Sheltered like a feral dog
Hiding from a pointing finger
Failing grace from a god
Thee rotting  faith on cracked foundation

Cradled like a orphan by strangers
Is it sympathy or hollow pity?
Mistrust like ashes lingers
Thy wounds eager to be filled with accommodation

Lovers promise commitment
Wind takes anything light
Cold feet struggle to be adherent
Thy precise wounded heart is my own bastion

Father's' troubled addiction
Angel wings have taken thee home
Leaving a child in self infliction
Thee wounds reminds that life is not without its friction
