Clearly seen, understood?.a simple demeanor ?yet a hollow sound and muffled weeping?.the dank air stirs briefly for a moment? the silence bears down heavily?.a blanket of fear, of life unlived?sleep?.sleep lightly and cold and shiver from thin blood draining through a shattered heart?.and fade?until a false dawn?an electric light and the metal clatter of a secret lock.
Heavy feet and leather soles and desolate souls and sinew stretched and grinding nerves ?shattered nerves?eyelids closed and life shuttered?.barren dreams?fruitful womb of hate and what? Love?.. nature??unnatural force and brutal steel?.sleep?stolen?.life??given ? sallow heart and muffled cries?light within a distant place?a flower.
And time does not heal?.and memory will not forget?.growing slowly and twisted?.protected by an innocence never known?and air drawn meekly through speechless mouths?.of wind and rain such secrets kept locked?hidden?.unknown.
Blood?.water?.dripping?ripped open and bare and vicious colours, odour of what was..life that never lived?..a fire.
Seconds and years?.solitude and hordes of panic driven faces in the hueless night?.bruises and deep wrenching love not understood ..the why? the how? the end of dread, the comfort of pain ?common?close?.forever?. flashing blue ..oh ghouls of light forgotten ?.scything shards of blazing white?.flesh?warmth.. teeth without hurt?touch without torment. ?Guilty.
