Skeletons in my closet
Rasping their knuckles on the walls
Tearing me from the inside outward
One by one they reach the knob
As the steepest darkness prospers forth
My joyous light dwindles on
Eventually consumed by monsters
Once contained behind my facade
Nothing to kill them, No one to stop them
Grimmest thoughts pollute my heart
Angels choking on the ash
Of intoxicated inhibitions
Throbbing pain within my skull
The specters eat away at my soul
It's too late to mend this
The parasites have reached the door
My sanity has deserted me
Soon engulfed by the fog of death
Leaving me to fend them off
A futile attempt to exist
How much longer must I struggle
I wish it all just would end
Without you my love by my side
I wish it true that I had died
Not again perturbed with visions of
Happiness, Romance & Satisfaction
I can once and for all
Make the final transition
But my heart a renegade
Insists I still have a chance to be happy
But it too will soon learn
Happiness is just a myth
My fragile mind breaks on impact
When it collides with reality
I have come to realize
The path of love leads to sorrow
She is divine: I am flawed
She is pure: I am toxic
She is my love: I am no one
She is not mine: I am damned to walk alone

You know what? I really dug this write...not usually into the dark stuff but your title totally intrigued me. The write was good. Your word usage relates well, what your feeling.....and after reading, I see the title fits well. The ending to the piece just drove it in like a spike through the heart. You make the reader feel the damage done. Good stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Peace, Laura |

Your right love always leads to sorrow no matter what. It may be happy for a while but then it'll turn bitter. Good work I really liked reading this poem.
