Guernica of his Own
December 17, 2015
A Statue of pure ivory,
With cracks on the inside.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder,
but he has gone blind.
A smile that could light up the world
held captive by a grimace so cold;
the most beautiful of souls
begging to be free;
Thoughts rushing ninety to nothing
a never ending stampede.
When every fiber of your being
is telling you to flee;
please,
let me be your white flag.
Stay safe with me.
