A wed
Is spun for you
With Invisible Threads
With Flamboyant Fuchsias and bloody reds
Holding Supporting the Enemy’s Heads
Whispering murmuring words that bled
Onto the Line Of the Road they Tread
On the Horizon of the Shadow you dread
That pushed You astray
DON’T SPEAK

Took my breath away because of the power and fear created in the poem - trust me, that's a good thing!! I love the last line and I want to read more of your work!
