Hands Of Time

Breakup Nonet

By Kelli Sheckler-AmsdenPublished about a year ago โ€ข 1 min read

you held my hands as you broke my heart

limb from limb, tore my world apart

played the victim and the brute

then played me like a flute

tugging at the mask

you hid behind

until the

time was

right
