wiped dry.

[DeadlySilence]

innocent eyes.
numbed heart.
lost soul
left to wander -
alone.
locked up mind.

remove this blade
from my hand.
wipe the blood
from my wrists.
dry the tears
in my eyes.

retreating back.
rebuilding walls.
letting go.
wandering around
lost in side
and out.

remove me
from your heart.
wipe me
from your memory.
forget me
and my love for you.

can’t be fixed.
can’t be made whole.
no need to live
without a heart to love.
no need to be found
for i’ll only be found dead.

remove the fake smile
from your face.
wipe the blood up
from the floor.
dry the tears
from your eyes.

empty eyes
sealed shut.
soul lost.
no longer breathing.
no longer screaming.
broken body found dead.

Interesting format for this piece, very well write

[DeadlySilence]

Thank you!

I like the idea of it. Could there perhaps be a better title? The title seems to represent only a small section of the poem, rather than encompassing the whole. It's like a story...nice job. ^.^

[DeadlySilence]

Thank you.

Yeah, I got stuck on the title.
do you have any suggestions?

[bloodredtears]

[DeadlySilence]

Thank you!
