Search for reasons to keep on moving
One foot in front of the other Step after step Line after line Page after page Time follows time Echoes of our history Blend in with our memories Churning up colors and secrets No one wants to see Step, thought, step Remember, dismiss, regret We are all soldiers in the wars against our souls Knowing dismissing our secrets Will never again make us whole Nor will it warm the cold The chill that runs up your spine Wraps around Peirces your heart Till beat after beat It all stops
This poem is to be featured in Ardent Magazine in April 2009! Can't wait to see myself in there. Make you sure pick up a copy too!
I fill the pages up with casualties
Wounded words
Bleeding phrases
I've brought to their knees.
Why are you trying to get inside me
Why are you trying to get into my mind
Raping my mind with your bitterness
Digging your nails in behind my eyes
Screaming....
I fill the pages with casualties..
Words I've used and broken for my own pleasure
The darkness bleeds
The silence screams
My mind reels
Until my unravelling is all I can feel
The need to breathe freely
Storms through my viens
Pushing me towards the brink of something
I can't even fucking explain.
Why do you want to hear my thoughts?
Why analyze my dreams?
Am I allowed no secrets?
No place to hide the wounded...
No rug under which to sweep the casualties...
My thoughts render some speechless
Cause others to walk away and never rise again
It's hard for me to be honest....
And keep a single friend.
Sometimes my anger is all I can fucking see...
As it slips on its razorblade gloves
Tearing my soul apart in vain.
They say they want inside my head to help
Inside to understand why I hurt
You won't understand..
Cause you can't hear the screaming pouring from my soul
You won't ever understand how it feels to be fragmented..
Fucking dreaming..of being whole.
I fill the pages with casualties..
Wounded words
Bleeding phrases I've brought to their knee's.
Why are you trying to get inside me?
Why are you trying to get inside my mind?
Raping my mind with your bitterness...
It's my bitterness....
The blood..it pours from my own wounds...
Nails digging in behind my eyes...
Darkness bleeds
The silence screams..
My mind reels...
Until my unravelling is all I can feel.
I may from time to time post some poetry and/or a chapter or two of a new project here. Check back and see from time to time!
