Charcoal skies

Contributed by bohemian_with_a_pen on Saturday, 30th April 2005 @ 09:35:45 PM in AEST
Topic: Suicide



So many ways to live like a prisoner
As I hide myself from eternal shame
The rain melts from the charcoal skies
And I shiver at the thought that the wind has learnt my name
At this tantalizing theory, my heart beings to flutter
I realize there is no-where else that I can place the blame
(As I swallow 30 cages of nothingness
I know that I will never be the same)

My soul grows weak and weary
As I stumble down the hall
I drop to my knees while my head
Swims with anticipation of the fall
You are my brethren, can’t you see?
I just wanted us to have it all
(The blue and red escort me
To the place where I must fall)

Tumbling and turning
I lie in a sea of white
Memory is hazy
I’ve brought upon this plight
My shadow beings to quiver
I havn’t given up the fight
(My eyes flicker open as I decide
I won’t leave you forsaken tonight)

I am without the capacity to describe how deep and how severely you have impacted me. Your words may be a story of your experience but they have captivated a disease in me and sparked it into recognition, you have an amazing talent. Use it and never forsake yourself, we here, outside can only hold you so long, forsaking anyone but yourself is forgiveable. Never surrender to your dark counter-parts. Learn and strive to use them soley for yourself, at times it is necessary to end life only to begin it anew. Take your attempt failed as a blessing, an awakening and cherish what you know deep down but will not let be seen in the light of day, you are worth something, more profound than these words more profound than this world.

~purpose, it is always hiding from me, peeking around the corners of your eyes and enticing what has held me here. you~weepingprophet

Lovely way of composing words, I compliment you

Your life must be different now, all our lives are whether we notice or not, time is mysterious and relentless is it not.

Therefore I hope in the power of healing and wish you all the best
