Soul

Falling into darkness
No hands outstretched to catch a broken body
Numbness illudes the pain, no longer feeling

No pain, no emotion, no life
Just bleeding from a open wound
Never ceasing to heal

Pouring on to the floor, infected
Bruising from some past infliction
Carnal understanding for surviving

Beating against the predators
Moving past the numbness
Feeling pain, anger, with that love

Slowly, closing the wound
Leaving a jagged scar
Makes a memory to keep
