Chains of my despair

anguished
|
Black blood weaving through chains of iron
binding me to my despair
The rotting floorboards that must support me
the earth dank and treacherous
Beware the thoughts that elate
troubled walks through memory gardens
A sideways glance that means nothing
Impure love unrequited
It emanates and illuminates
the links tightening around my free will
Cohesion no longer an option
venom coursing through collapsed veins
Phantoms shift and hide and laugh
despair has become my redemption
She took my hand and burned her breast
smoke rising from charred flesh
Tears of acid pour down the drain
a cauterized heart indistinct
A voice ringing with accusations
justification will always be futile
Screams for mercy from among the trees
the bridge swings ever slowly
What have we here...an impish grin
emotion transfused with apathy
Ankles lashed to fields of stone
skyward I am falling
Worries taint my nestled brow
my crashing soul sounds the alarm
Air and wind they bring me in vain
the rust invading and inviting
Visons of her and a voice of dread
endings that will never begin
Foretelling, foreboding, one and the same
crimson clouds lined with ash
The mundane has become extraordinary
savoring the bile that sates me
Darkened room glows with sweet corruption
waves crashing on beaches of bone
Black blood weaving through chains of iron
binding me to my despair
The chains of my despair
