Draped 

 It's another night

draped in fear

wrapped in lonliness..

one more moment

agonizing

between blade

and flesh

blood

and life...

Long ago I

suffered over

tear stains on my sheets

and broken promises...

But now,

after yet another

morning

blinding and painful

I'd rather

drown

in those tears

than find

safety

in any harbor

but my own
