eclipsing

some thoughts sear your heart
touching that precious core
that holds your soul
your whole being recoiling
in self-loathing
at this encroachment
leaving bare something untouched
shaking every belief
your very faith in yourself
at that one look through
bitterness long withheld
and you cringe
in horrified revulsion
at that sight
a blow you are unable to survive
eclipsing forever that light
the God inside....
