reconstruction

Little heart

the legions that war against you

hold on

tight

to that life inside you

beating away long past the dreary light

never slowing

ever growing

though its been

raped

and broken

a bloodied mess

it beats on through the night in the fight

with hope for a beautiful return

wrap your arms around

pull them close

to fend off the coldest air

for the onslaught but continues

keep your armor

bound around you

awaiting grace

to seep through

quietly chipping away the stone

warmth and quiet

sweet embrace

naked as it came

hold on

little heart
