Anger

Bruise 
Broken fragments 
Of a bruised but beating heart 
As it stutters and falters 
Under the crushing pain 
The eyes taking it all in 
Agony washing in waves 
Each current stronger 
Than the impossible last 
She shouldn't look 
As she already knows 
That it just may kill her 
After all, how much pain 
Should one heart be expected 
To take and continue to beat 
Give up, give up it speaks 
With each and every pound 
But like a magnet 
It draws her in 
And keeps her there 
To continue it's assault 
On her fragile heart 
And fading spirit 
Her breathing slows 
As her will slips away 
Through her open fingers 
With no attempt 
To stop it from leaving 
As her heart slows
