Trueself Within

Contributed by shatteredreflection on Wednesday, 30th March 2005 @ 07:49:27 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



Flames grow in the vision of my eyes
While I stretch my fingertips to grab hold
So early you saw through my disguise
Before I could tightly grasp your soul

I tried to pull you into the relms of hell
So you could finally understand
My plan failed because you knew all too well
And you could sense the fiery land

The flames licked your face as you tried to speak
But you moved your lips and there was no sound
I was listening for the silent noise so faint and weak
Then finally your words were found

They were of distress and pain
As I tightened the ropes around your wrists
You said that it was all in vain
then I kicked you making you squirm and twist

I almost had you beat when you started to fight back
First it was resistance minutly small
Then you threw punches making my vision black
And you kept hitting until you saw me fall

My breath slowed as I laid on the ground
As a cold sweat swept over my face
You knew I was gone once I was down
And that this was my final resting place

You stayed by my side and held my hand
Until it seemed I would take my last breath
You knew all along my soul had been damned
And hoped that I would conquer death

The binding strings were cut when I died
Releasing my from these unearthly sins
My gaze met yours then I silently cried
As I found my true self within.
