The Faint Pulse of Life

There’s still a pulse,

A faint beat of a trampled heart,

The film is rolling with no sound,

Muted screams of a vacant mind.

***

Sunbeams raining, cold as ice,

Soak the skins of a desperate life,

While raindrops plunge to sting the eyes,

Burning holes through shattered lies.
