Knots
Tied like strings
Across the shoes of time,
Are the vocal chords of my soul.
Distress travels from my tired heart
To my lips,
Pinned open,
Through which silent screams erupt.
Ravenous for compassion and love,
I deprive myself of food and contact.
I am alone,
Save the company of my physical being.
My body speaks
But I cannot
For if I do,
Not only will the knots come undone
But as will I.
