Free me.

I'm shaking these steely shackles
fingers gnarled, the freshness of youth
corroded by pain and age and sorrow.

When a man leaves, all that's left
is his shadow, just enough so
you can't forget.

Are you that single metal flower
whose serrated petals are swirling
in that cyclone in my chest?

The sky bleeds violet; I cry for her.
Every day, hope shoots shattering bullets
of dreams through her fragile breast.

Don't cry, my love.  I can die without you
I don't need your eagerly offered hand
I can use these blunt emotions to

Break me

Out.
