These thews that lift the burden of
unspoken tragedies
These eyes like marbles; cast in stone
unmoved by memories
And lines on face that tell a tale
of unbearable pain
These twisted fingers speak of past
unwinding once again

The heavy tears that shook the earth are
once again suppressed
The once-jubilant heart has now
with misery coalesced
These legs that never slowed their pace
unamused by moonlit roads
And lips that spoke the sweetest words
with silence are bestowed
