Finger nails gnaw Bare flesh rips Blood spills Over sorrowed hands Now ribs crack Then give way Fingers tunnel through flesh Past bone Then curl Triumphantly My hand pulls back Raising up Towards the heavens, I hold my beating heart Dying breath Grasps it firm Piercing it with Thorny spike And sets alight My wretched body

Fingernails
Finger nails gnaw Bare flesh rips Blood spills Over sorrowed hands Now ribs crack Then give way Fingers tunnel through flesh Past bone Then curl Triumphantly My hand pulls back Raising up Towards the heavens, I hold my beating heart Dying breath Grasps it firm Piercing it with Thorny spike And sets alight My wretched body
