Crooked Symphony
April 19, 2011
Ink runs like a river
Carving a steady rhyme
Like blood pierced from a lover past
In a forgotten time
Secrets are like venom
Shallow in our veins
Yet masked in ink lay secrets veiled
Drenched in presaged pain
My heartache forms a plot line
An off-tune melody
Scribbled in a five-line cage
Lays my crooked symphony
Equipped with all mistaken
My troubled tale begins
My open wounds drip poison words
On walls, so paper-thin
Walls that build a house
None too sturdy, none too strong
In the corners lay the secrets
Of my buried midnight song
