...unmarked heart...

By dumbone

At the end
Beside the clothes
Only what is written shall prevail

On this mask
I like to call my heart
My treasure

That what wasn’t colored by dark
The only light on my path
Shall rot and fall apart

Passion within
Every stroke, letter by letter
All over the body, every word I ever wrote

On this mask
I like to call my heart
My treasure

I’ll have no mark

    Dum - some fine thoughts and I think personally, that every poem written was once a proud moment of the heart (if sober). For a while here I thought you were about to get a full body tattoo! I really need to get my best stuff together for posterity. It will make good kindling when they turn off the power - Dan

    I think you expressed loneliness very descriptively in this one. Good to see a new piece from you. Ciao, T/S Scholar
