Forsaken
Night forages my thoughts
and the darkness weeps
shadows skirt the past
and I'm left with
emptiness and silence
the only semblance of life
are
footprints deep inside
I feel your presence
as the knife rips out my tongue
blood no longer drips
but scars
won't fade away
and the darkness weeps
shadows skirt the past
and I'm left with
emptiness and silence
the only semblance of life
are
footprints deep inside
I feel your presence
as the knife rips out my tongue
blood no longer drips
but scars
won't fade away

Such subtle yet brutal beautiful lines you make..
in expressing the emptiness..
The scars... reminds us we can be strong

Great, I like the description.
A harsh presence of another person can almost feel violent.
