Shifting

- Written June 5th 2016 -

The world, It's shifting beneath our feet, 

Forever creating cracks that cannot be filled causing us to fall to the ground leaving bruised knees and grazed wrists.

These scars, unable to heal, tear away at us, 

Eventually taking our lives, leaving us empty.

But my dear I do not wish to become yet another victim of the brutality that is this world we live in, 

I do not wish to become another piece of flesh, no one to hold, nothing to say and I will not become yet another nameless face, yet another unloved body, yet another victim of our society,

They will not break my bones for they are made of steel, 

They will not bruise my skin for it is built to last, 

They will not tear out my heart for it has been carved into my body with the love I have for you.

I will not break, I will not cry,

For I love you too much for you to see me go.
