~Renewed Faith~

A slice of my heart,1

taken as a souvenir;2

packaged in a jar,3

preserved for your own perverse pleasure.4

Setting sail cloaked by the darkness of night,5

a ghost dissipating into the unknown;6

in search of another trophy,7

anonymously, without a goodbye.8

Pain fermenting,9

a volcanic eruption spewing forth10

hot angry lava.11

My satin ivory skin,12

scorching to the touch; a heart melting in sorrow,13

draining through out my soul, tainting,14

disintegrating the love and compassion;15

once possessed.16

Daylight unveiling painful sights;17

rage bubbling to the surface.18

Armed ,my wrath, a tornado full of fury,19

best to flee.20

Journeys; retrieving what was unjustly taken,21

goals of regret,22

ornaments added to a collection of deceits,23

adorning a scorned decor.24

Teetering amongst pain and sorrow,25

a black wilted rose,26

adorned with painful thorns,27

requiring precipitation of renewed faith,28

gaining a strong root hold amongst the soil of emotions,29

to love again.
