Down In The Basement

Contributed by Exodus-On-Life on Monday, 24th November 2003 @ 01:24:38 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry

Doomed from the start
As my stars usually are

Working down in the basement
Down in the basement

With sizable scars

Close my eyes and pretend I'm so high
Yes, we are bothered

Always try to move me
With a movement

On the cement

Legible writing
That really never rests

Keep me under control

Sleeping always and tired tomorrow
The weight of my conscience

With sizable scars

Breaking through the inside
Living in a basement

Tearing through the dark

Can't see where I'm supposed to go

I was doomed from the start
As I usually am

Working down in a basement
Living through a hell in my own dark

Keep my thoughts and feelings away

Make sure I conquer yesterday

Haven't hurt in a long time
With sizable scars

Living so deep in the basement of life
And clawing my way through the dark

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. ©
