Collateral

Carter torn upon the wheel
Burn in bone.
Eat at mind eye scald
Called too soon
The laughter to another place.
What is balance to a heart
Unsound, unfound among the twists of genesis.
Untold upon the face,
Loved all from start
And fading into dark, unknown.
Call, have him back.
Why tilt to fill with earth
and sad to fill my heart.
Slips away life so fragile yet
So we turn away
And never see the dark grin
Behind the laughing day.
Give my heart to all the more
For losing one who never knew.
My silence fills, remorse
I break
For never having said my heart to you.
