She lets forth a longing sigh <br />and a myriad of unrequited words <br />recalling her self imposed oath <br />to keep silent after <br />she slashed and spurned it all to the ground <br />until all was unhappily buried <br />or wandering ghostlike in sealed cryptography <br />But that vow must be broken for her to be freed <br />so she navigates glossed souls in a black mass demonstration <br />casting out endearing and damning inscriptions <br />for cold friends and flames who's memories cannot be <br />strangled out in her mind like a cord on blue throats <br />She has agreed to stitch everything back together <br />let the pen bleed it's testimony <br />of unresolved burdens and smeared ink <br />and make no excuses for the trauma <br />left in her wake<br /><br />Charles Darkly<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/the-silent-poet-speaks/
