The tinkle of my anklets had become silent with timeAnd now a whiff from the past Stir sleeping memoriesNo anklets on my feet
And yet the chime resonates
There is no dais
And yet my feet they dance
to a soundless melody...

Ambushed by
shrapnel words
searing the soul
piercing, lacerating
vitriolic volley
bloodless wounds
never to heal
Invisible scars
Silent screams
Unshed tears
Unspent fury
