Internal Hostage

The shining eyes

That cry for you

The broken heart

That bleeds for you

The mind hidden

That that holds hope for you

Is melting with the demons

That fight the past

That’s hurled at me

By your lips

So ignorantly-

The back can’t carry anymore weight

And the massacre

Of my thoughts

As they are held for ransom

In exchange for a level up

Of demeaning torture

By the hurt

That must remain unseen-
