Cracks And Crevices Poem by Susan Lacovara

If being invisible
Could only keep me safe
Away from the cliff
The shadowy cavern
The raging ocean's undertow
And you...you...you

My heart, a carcass
Bone bare picked apart
By the vultures of time
And torment

Never would I think
You would have looked away
At the precise moment
Of needing you near

Some call invisibilty
a superpower
For me, a curse, a voodoo spell
Some careless heart of stone
transfered to me

If there be a slant of light left
To creep into my crevices
For there are pieces of me, broken
Where I never even knew I had cracks
