POEM: Banshee’d Again

Banshee Wrap Cloak Battle Support Wall Random Waste Relent

Banshee’d Again


Wrap my arms around myself
Cloaking against random stares
The fingernails of my desire
Shriek against the slate of silence
Beat my heart against stone

Piercing wails banshee’s song
Need to lean my head back
Solid wall living warm heart
Support me hold me love me
Empty nothingness awaits me

Rendering my cries wasted air
Points so relentlessly moot
Love’s battle kills another
Wild Scottish moanings
Woman lost to all love

Readers Notes: Nope, no clue where this came from. Pulled the words AFTER writing the piece though.
