a (trio) of defenselessness

   
      
       
(i)      
bloodied broken      
and breathless;      
coursing        
with overwhelming emotion—      
 a heart leaps      
because fighting for you      
is a lifelong reward...      
.... now reaped      
       
(ii)        
it's funny,        
how my thoughts      
 s      
     w      
         i      
    r      
l      
so lost in my head's own peril        
a forgotten reminder,        
to coax my heart to keep beating        
       
(iii)
the most unwanted star
shone as  b r i g h t      
as it could from afar        
whispers within the dark        
broke the poor unwanted star's heart        
now, so desolate and darkened,        
that lonely star...        
   
...sadly, it shines no more.
