Life is a Sham

my mind swirls in and out
visions block my thoughts
i wait for the feeling
that wonderful feeling
a faint fingertouch
my sanity bursts
spewing filth over my chilled form
consincous washes over me
i am alone
not just me
we are alone
alone to face the world
you try with a smile
i don't lie
you see a fake smile
no one is true
we all tell a lie
a shadow of doubt
no sun shines through
the price of youth
has burnt to the ground
you fall to your knees
you beg only for life
they pump you with drugs
life is a sham
a dust ruffle set
that you hide in your closet
on special occiasions
it crumbles, it ashes
kiss me you fool
for i am a witch
i'll eat you for breakfast
maybe even lunch
sleep comes to us
it never fails
unlike love which breaks
and shatters
sarcasm is witty
it scatches the face
of a thousand faced man
he keeps to himself
his pain is so real
seconds tick down
to an endless eternity
screams pierce the perfume thick air
again my head spins
the world's standing still
the sane control us
we rebel still
i love but still am unloved
love is a curse
a horrible dream
a thought of a husband
with children attached
darkness covers me
i float downstream
i cry for relief
the pain of a god
rain washes clean
the month of our sorry rainbow expressions
why do you cry,
if there is a god?
why do you go,
if there is a will?
if i were to touch you,
would you shrink away?
a burning sensation
replaces my once full heart
blacken with time
time brings pain
a tangle is my mind
it's so hard to explain

My first dose of angsty poetry for the day and I have to say it's steadily making me feel that delicious pessimistic feeling again. I feel very disillusioned by life too. |
