Fractured
Sharpened claws digging in
Serrated edges tearing skin
Screaming loud for attention
Haunted voices of addiction
Darkness in the mind abides
Darkness wherein serpents slide
Screaming out for sustenance
Words tinged with childish truculence
Tremors quaking, heaving the world
Rocking the ground, all sense hurled
To lay broken against a shattered heart
Obsidian psyche torn apart
Pestered and badgered by a thousand voices
Stumbling blindly through a thousand choices
In confusion drowning fast
Swearing fealty to a splintered past
Jealousy in the constant scorned
Forgotten smiles lay never mourned
Contradictions in hidden dreams
Fractures bridged with rotted seams
