the sound of drums pounding on the wall

Faint screams dance behind

when will it stop

cries drown my heart with sorrow

I sway away my pride

I’m sorry...

worry

I am here

A fury, hate

fall to your knees

humiliation

helplessness

I thrive...

No one is as kind and deserving

To give when you have nothing

A heart so pure and unwanted

So here I give this ring....
