Scars may fade,
Memories do not.
On the surface all is fine
Lodged deep inside,
The truth lurks,
Emerged in red light
An everlasting light,
Never extinguished.
It glows in the dark,
Not even night vision can see its aura.
Yet the threat it poses ever potent,
The predator camouflaged in the depth
Stalking its pray
No signs of attack
No signs of defeat.
Its finished.
The bombardment ended.
Search for survivors complete.
An empty shell the only remains.
It tells of mutiny from within.
The soul departed.
Its paid its way.
Taken to a better place,
A fiery hell.
Its where it belongs,
Stained by the sins of its host,
Flooding into the River Styx.
