Coming of Age


A poem from my upcoming ebook, "Breaking Ties"!


Coming of Age

I see it there-
lurking in the shadows.
Deep in the dark-
the dark it follows.

Innocent thoughts-
turn to thoughts of rage
a sacred right-
the coming of age.

The pain that starts in my soul-
and flows ever so steady to my heart.
Pain like icey blood
and ripping me apart.

And I heard her say-
victims we are all
with wet souls-
scratches from ravens claws”
