Despair....a dark place |
By the light of the waning moon Sat I once again to soon I would see the light of dawn Leaking through the tattered clouds A heart asunder with tears Unshed For its to that quiet place My dark twisted thoughts have fled Dark. Self loathing. Destructive threads Branching out to strangle my soul To plunder what's left of joy To tear apart any rememant of a smile For once I've walked more than a mile The journey must end. Dissipate Into the nothingness that is this path To the unknown unspoken blackness That is now the dark hole I've dug Blackness, bile, foul stench of you Invading my nostrils, choking, smothering Cutting off much needed breaths I gasp, struggle grabbing, reaching The only thing to greet these empty Clawing hands, nothing, a void so vast Left grasping, clutching, fingers clenching Gasping, panic, closed in, blocked Breath fading, sight blocked, sounds too loud A void, vast,infinitesimal. To much Release me, free me, let me go Reeling, falling, down, down Leading to who knows where This constant descent Speeding up, shooting through Each desperate limb needing solid Hand hold or foot found Nothing, nothing making sense Air becoming less and less dense Darkness. Constant companion why are you always there Hide me. Conceal me in your embrace Remove from me doubt. Rip asunder From deep within in this dark twisted soul The remains of what chokes, smothers Kills..... |
