Aching Aching
My heart feels shattered
My thoughts are battered
Aching to be loved and held
They cry to be heard
Like a frantic caged bird
They speak but then are felled
The cruel axe of words
From other caged birds
Takes from this tree my sap
And the once soaring spirit
Quite shutters to hear it:
The ring of the axe's sharp clap
~C.M.Y.
