The Icarus Account/ Mayday

by TJ Arizona Eagle   Oct 18, 2011


Lost in a world of sightless eyes,
ears that no longer hear my cries
Help is but a word that bares no
meaning and seeks none.

Beg you crush the stone
that is my heart!

Heart once pliable is now
frozen in time where dreams
transform to nightmares . Dark
shadows cast faith to the wind

Beg you crush the stone
that is my heart!

Love once latent is
no longer. Father exorcize the
demons that inhibit my soul
leaving but an empty shell

Beg you crush the stone
that is my heart!

    The words create quite a few powerful images flashing through the reader's mind that can definitely touch them in unexplainable ways. Very well-written.

    5/5

    Touch then softer than a breath sway upon the melody of this moment as if in death.
    Not to crush but gently hold, wrap around and softly tenderly fold. Precious this heart if only to me then.
