Broken Glass

Topic:
anguished
|
My soul is full of broken glass
The clockwork destroyed
Ne’er to be repaired
The shards pierce from inside
Molten lava leaking
Between my fingers
Up my throat
Out my eyes
I walk on broken glass
A desolate landscape
The sky a leaden gray
The barren earth
Dotted with landmines
Bottomless pits full of screaming
I reach the river Styx
Naked and unafraid
Kneel down on broken glass
Touch my fingers to its black oily surface
A cool numbness spreads over me
The temptation is too great
An unending forgetfulness
No more anguish
No more terror
No more nightmares
To nonexist

| I like the imagery in this poem, although it is dark, it speaks to me. |

I wish I could write when I feel like this but I can't - so some stranger crawls into my head and pens the words that I am meant to read - LOL I so feel this one and it is very well written. Thanks for sharing!
