An Intimate Look at a Serrated Soul

I was sinking to the bottom familiar ground No new stones to turn no unmasking of the masks My tears coalesced to form a pond of imperfections I was worn by time, dampen by resolve, and loosened from gripping too tight I turned away to divert my glare Then off in the distance someone approached  to throw mud pies Slung with mud the crust did form to crack my heart in two
