Medieval Internal

KTay

Iron Maiden in his mind

Impaling his will

Inner spikes colluding

Slow intention to kill

Arch nemesis out of sight

No reflection

No eyes left to see

Nemesis is he

Writhing

In abysmal deep

Chamber of tribulations

Awakening screams

From within

Bull so brazen

Burning his courage

The firing heat

Underneath

Pleading to Death

Daughter scavenging deep

Squeezing

Every orifice bleeding

Out

His hope

Laying in despair

Lonely and weak

Her crushing teeth

The pear that he eats

In anguish

Defiles self esteem

The spreading leaves

Opening his depression

Anxieties

Attacking from beneath

Onto the cradle

No comfort from Judas

Splitting his being

Splintering in two

His torturous keeper

Strapping to the finale with Catherine

Spirit breaking

With every drop of the wheel

Weaving

His mangled body through the sections

Hung up high

For everybody's inspections

Rotting and eaten

Crawling with flies

He's been beaten

He is dead inside

    Well worded and in a medieval setting this poem flows with good rhyme and rhythm. It turns dark and without hope there is nothing worse than being dead inside, a living death. Well done

      A well written and expressed write, getting darker and more passionate as you read through revealing the feeling of feeling dead inside, a great write
