Seppuku
By DavidVale
We all have scars the
world can see
Cuts
and bleeds and bruises dark
Tell me, what's become of them
Healed away, sealed tightly shut
The truer ones are those beneath
Slowly eating at the heart
Open yet and bleeding
still
A glancing blow,
a trickling kill
The scar in me is yet unformed
Love to hurt to be transformed
Your spear it's mark has found, it's true
A fatal wound, of that,
be sure
I
have no doctor, far from help
Not sure Your heart shall ever melt
I'm willing, look you in the eyes
And oh so slowly my world dies...
