If You Could Poem by Aeron Jones

If you could only grasp this moment it would skilfully break your heart
If you could feel this pain so deep inside please realise it was tortured from the start
If you could stop these inner urges that destroy my very thoughts and fail my mind
If you should only know a way to make this illness falter into sublime
If you could only
A better heart would realise the simplicity of the thought
Three words describe my features
Pounded broken caught
The darkness brazenly gathers around me with its swagger hate and guile
Stranger in a broken lifestyle
If only for a while.
