Bullet Holes

Contributed by deadheadpoet on Wednesday, 19th July 2017 @ 03:11:06 PM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Can you see my face in your mirror?
The outline
faded lines
muted tones
disappearing right before your eyes?
No reflection.
Darkness.
Tear stained cheeks.
Just look away.
Someone took her shine.
Eyes have become darkened hallows
lips stained red wine.
Body has become just a carrier
for these blood and bones.
A soul left
with your all your
bullet holes.

great versus, great title
Bullet holes shot right through
yet,
"a soul left with all your bullet holes."
Well hell, the soul is still there.
That/'/s what all the shooters say,
I know.

they should see you in their mirror
the poor sods.
Ain/'/t we all.

Peace!

Gritty and to the point, the fact that is is conscise is one of its greatest strengths
"A soul left with all your bullet holes" is a great way to sum things up.
I/'/m an appreciative viewer here.
