Watch the cracks - some kind of monster

Contributed by darkscorpio on Tuesday, 23rd September 2003 @ 09:35:00 AM in AEST
Topic: oops

Watch the cracks destroy the surface
Of my so called perfect life
Consumed with feelings I can’t control
Weapon of rage, I hold the knife
In my hand to destroy what I’ve built
Break it down all in one day
Destroy the loving, break the bond
That I promised myself I’d find a way
To keep it together no matter what
The stress or pressure that consumes me
I’ll lose my son, I’ll lose my wife
I just don’t care, I hate my life

Can’t stand the pressure I put on myself
Vicious the cycle sanity’s on a shelf
That I just can not reach, and I want to explode
Cracks in my armour, my humble abode
Afraid of the past and afraid of the future
No life in the present, tear open the suture
Of all my restraint, and of all my regret
The monster’s alive the scars come back to get
My dreams and my hopes and my lives and my deaths
I can’t understand why I can’t fight off it’s breath
All I’ve created and all that I’ve built
Will be brought down in flames cause I can’t stop the guilt
From engulfing my soul, cause I’ve lost all control
And I breakdown in rage, and now starts the death toll

Here comes the pain as my 9 lives do die
One life by pain, and another by my lie
One more from hurting, and one more from lust
There’s 5 more lives left, they’ll be left in the dust
One from neglect, a lack of inner peace
And one from regret, as I fall down piece by piece

You will not beat me, I’ll regain my strength
I’ll overcome the obstacle in my head that aids restraint

Another one on depression, eh? You express yourself quite well. I find music very mood changing. So I listen to new stuff, things that won't bring back old/bad memories. It really does help. Hope I didn't take this write the wrong way. Peace to ya.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. Â©
