Lines

Lines in the sand
lines on my skin
they all have meaning
borders in the heart
or remainders
of past moments

I look down at
the lines I have made
my heart brakes
what I have made
can not be undone
this is when I make
a line in my mind
I will be strong
non will come
so I must be strong
if only for my mind

most don't even see
the surface I have made
but if they look closer
some have seen
few have asked
and fewer have been told

these lines have been crossed
and tears have fallen
but one must be strong
if only for those who truly care.
