Close Your Heart

Touch her skin
And watch it bleed
Taste the words
Injurious seed

Naked walls
Cold, piercing light
Left to rot
This starlit night

Harmful lies
Tied round her neck
In the eyes
All life has drowned

Little feeble one
Close your heart
You have shown faith again
Close your heart

Look away this time
Close your heart
Shut your feelings down
Close your heart

A new start won’t bring her back
Touch her heart and it turns black
