locket… by Toni L.A. Cross

 

my eternal captive

memory with worn edges

a gritty film of nostalgia

forever living yesterday

contained inside a metal cocoon

hammered into shape

hidden just here

warmed by my chest

hot with the pulse

of my aging heart

About goatgirlbookworm

My name is Toni Cross, and I was raised on a farm in the far north of the United States. I love to read and write and I hope to use those hobbies in a greater way in the days to come. One of my passions is using whatever influence I have to make a difference in the world.
