Unwrap My Soul

by Heather M Craig   Jun 15, 2005


Peering into the desolate image
tainted with depression's art.
Looking beyond the crimson canvas,
I find an imprisoned heart.

The allure cascades off the bars
calling, pleading for devoted aid
in the whispers of the wind
for the hope the pain will fade.

The artificial smile upon her
leads to a contrasting soul
built by wrathful bricks
to protect the heart of gold.

She burns inside herself
awaiting a delightful recovery...
for no one acknowledges the existence
of the person inside of me.

Heather M Craig.
