The Bruised Heart
Shattered bruises covering my shell
I can feel the hurt in my core
Like a thorn in the foot of a dragon
I am unsettled but driven in my rage
events and circumstances around me
that leaves me feeling alone
like an ant on a hill staring at the sun
even though it's baking me to a crisp
I remain there waiting for someone
I am frozen to the sea,
my heart craves
to drown in Dark winter
as the dark sky bleeds,
and danger is like an angry lion,
tame it if you can
