Able to recognize,

we change with every lie;

Cradle close wicked hearts,

grimm beckons from afar,

Does one know who you are?

Crimson tasting heavy on ruby lips,

memory folds in and out.... as shredded bits,

Was terribly gruesome, a renowned fit?

Being secure enough to show grief,

call out failures, and breathe,

don't seek this a sign of weak;

Bent a thousand times over: no hesitation,

fell further into haunting gravitation,

choices come carrying a dire price,

one more I've made of mine.
