Pierced

A long bar to account for the
Swelling of your heart,
Blood soaked tissue in your hands,
Clean with salt water twice a day.

Moulding a heart of clay,
Turning it into a pin cushion.
Broken elms of destiny,
Time stitched but not sewn.

Seamless words in translation.
Breaking into your skin,
Stopping the flow of your blood,
Melting your heart of clay.
