Shatter Heart
A silent breeze,
Rustles the leaves.
A hollow echo,
In a lonely place.
The trees have grown,
Dark and shifty with age.
Dark shadows dance,
A ritual to appease.
A dream plays in my head,
Shatters and comes back again.
Bound by chains,
The wind makes them cackle.
Awakened again,
Alone in an unknown.
Crystals slid down cheeks,
I promised I wouldn’t cry.
A dash,
To anywhere but here.
Things become blurry,
Shadows race ahead.
A memory resonates,
A scar in my heart.
The blurs turn to glass and crack,
Just as a shattered heart.

This is good, but it doesnt give the impression or the picture of a rape victim. More like a person that has maybe been abused or has lost someone close to them, or I'll even go as far as saying that they have lost themselves in the world. Good!
Check out some of my work, comment and rate them for me!
