She cries rivers before submitting
to night’s empty call
fear never letting her close her eyes
it never used to be so hard
when she trusted herself
before you broke her
took this fragile flower, crushed it beneath the weight of your solid body
breaking not her heart, but her belief in being worth breathing
stealing everything
rough marks on pale skin
your hands branded through bruises
deep beneath the surface
pain you could not imagine
do not touch her
do not look at her
she will always be a faceless life
you’ll never forget
and you, the first steps towards
inevitable demise.
