(august 2, 2013)
my heart,
red and blue,
bruised and stitched and reused,
fixed and broken,
busted and bandadged,
stiched and sown,
beaten and blown,
the pain you caused,
the pain i own,
each beat is a struggle,
each step is a mile,
each day drags long,
to the same old haunting lullaby,
the same old song,
the remnants of it in my memory,
play like a broken record,
painstakingly slow,
dreadfully long.
