Swallow The Splinters

Contributed by ForeverAlone on Thursday, 16th June 2005 @ 08:48:27 PM in AEST
Topic: DarkPoetry



Swallow The Splinters

Peer into my eyes, and see the sight of the pain
Cursed by my own self, the only one to blame

Crush the bones that hold me together,
Torture my soul that has made me no better

Show me something to gain, I've had and lost it before
I want no more of this fortune, ahh, this life, I want no more

Stretch my marred skin beyond my natural form
Bleed my sorrow out, and throw me with the worms

The time as exceeded, and I have lost all control
I have wasted the air you breath, and it's near time to dig my hole

Torment my nerves and numb my mind
Rips my eyes from their sockets and leave me blind

Ease out the tears and wipe them from my face
Shatter my selfworth, and eclipes what you can't erase

But it has finally come out, the last thing on the list
I conquer myself and my dreams, as I end sliting my writs
. . .
And it all starts again tomorrow as I swallow the splinters of unattainable bliss

Wow! Clark, that last line is awesome.

The rest, it seems so helpless and lost, so sad, The last line was the same, I know, but it was more powerful than the rest of the poem.

I hope, your/their life gets better soon.

Great write,
*hugs* Phil xxx
