Spitting Cobra
Spitting cobra Venom in my eye Erodes my facial structure Exposing my insides My scars are within Where no one can see It’s when I come to these pages That I begin to bleed My words are weighed down with meaning Burdened with grief They carry far too much sorrow For me to even speak Continue reading

When Words Were Gone
