Don’t want to live in the dark

Contributed by glassicallyunsuperficial on Sunday, 7th August 2005 @ 12:54:10 AM in AEST
Topic: EmotionalPoetry



Leave more imprints on my pride
Step upon it stride by stride
Break my heart into a thousand pieces
Bend it ‘round and leave more creases
You can slash my face, my wrists
You can pull the veins all out of me
Tear my feelins away from my soul
Use morphine and take away the numb and cold
I don’t care anymore
‘cos I live with no soul
I don’t care anymore
‘cos my blood have stopped its flow
Pull apart the emotions on my face
I’ll sit on it, leave no trace
You can suck the blood all out of my body
The amount left will still be symmetry
Centuries later I’ll just be a fossil
While now the chances of living are definitely nil
Scratch away the healing skin
Let the wound reopen and pour paraffin
I don’t care anymore
‘Cos I’ve given up
I don’t care anymore
‘Cos I don’t wanna live in the dark

Yes, you are hollow. You have left a dark place. You are not there any longer for abuse. You have stepped out of the dark and into the light.

I like your poem very much. It shows the impact of one that has tried, given up only to chase away the idea of giving one's own power away to another.

Very brilliant write indeed.
