Your Raptor toe,
a blade of cruel design,
slashes deep into my core,
Shredding my empty soul
And I struggle to control
as I fight to redefine.

The sting it sears,
a weight that never clears,
around my heart it veers,
as I strive through all my fears.

Yet all I know is the sear,
as my thoughts bend and veer,
caught in a love severe,
a truth I must revere.

My thoughts...
