Safe N Sound

Mockingbird & Monster

There’s a door in your marrow,
shut with a thorn.
A hush in the hollows
where memories are worn.
No blaze, no bell, no warning cry,
just soil beneath a sleepless sigh.

Under the hill, where the brambles hum,
I swallowed my sorrow and struck the drum.
Footsteps echo in ribs and clay,
wounds wear boots and walk all day.
Got ghosts in my gait, moss on my grin,
truth tastes bitter when brewed in the skin.
Every scar’s a story, stitched in rhyme,
a curse in cursive, a loop in time.

I’m not lost, I’m just listening
to the dirt beneath my name.
Where the river’s root is whispering,
grief’s a road without a flame.

Beneath the bark and breathless stone,
my silence weeps in monochrome.
Tattooed truth in the creases deep,
I hold my hurt where the riddles sleep.
Quotes of kin etched in a sigh:
“Don’t bury it, son, just learn to lie.”
But I plant my fear like herbs that sing,
brew it with nettles and the bell of spring.

I’m not cold, I’m just kindled,
made of frost and ember's hymn.
Where my body folds and dwindles,
there’s a light beneath the dim.

Mirror’s edge and a breath held tight,
talked to my pain like it talked back right.
"You ain't broken, just born in hex,"
said the fox with the soul of a paradox text.
Walked through a field where the names don’t stay,
tattooed grief in a slipstream way.
Quote the wind: “You’re what you’ve been,
but what you’ve been ain’t all within.”

Cracks in the mask, runes in the rust,
still draw maps in the marrow and dust.
If love’s a myth, then I pray to the lie,
cause that lie’s the reason I still try.
Under the hill, under my skin,
I carved my loss with an old inked pin.
Not for shame, not for sin,
just for the child who never gave in.

It’s quiet now.
But not gone.
The hill hums slow.
And I hum along.

Mockingbird & Monster
