What Hurts Worse?

Contributed by Cancer on Tuesday, 22nd April 2003 @ 03:05:00 AM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

everything that flourished here
is dead and fading fast
this love, this union, til death do us part
was just to weak to last
stained glass carvings of pain on my heart
turn all sunshine to pitch
shattered my reflection, to construct it anew
now nothing seems to fit
this methodical self-destruction is taking far too long
the scabs heal far too well
these scars just aren't quite deep enough
i must find a more painful hell
in search of deathless suicide
searching madly for deeper pain
i guess my only feasible option
is to fall in love again
for, what hurts more, than love unreturned
what stings more than true love lost
bleeding to death for the one you desire
unnoticed as you hang on a cross
or perhaps i should take up religion
to fulfill my masochistic desire
worship a god who loves me so much
that he'd let me drown in a lake of fire
maybe even a mind numb consumer slave
whoring myself out for another dollar
just so i could afford to set
rhinestones in my leash and collar
i guess, in the end, all of these pains are the same
however, some of the sufferers have earned their strife
but, i think i know the path i'll take
to glean the most pain from life
i'll just blend in, become like everyone else
the ones too dead to cry
and live the same day over and over
and over until i die
thinking no new thoughts, saying nothing worth hearing
my dullard eyes will clearly show
that i'll just keep walking in the same small circle
until it is my time to go

such emotion and hurt in this poem. Yet so honest and powerful. Well done.
