Sat
A quiet world
Not in my mind
An ongoing turmoil sold
Pain caused by you
The deepness of us sewn in
Stitch marks all up my spine
Scars so ugly, moving away passers by
Nails dug into my skin
Pulling me down, clenching my soul
With emptiness echoing within
Withering away, little light fixed
Mixing the chemicals in my brain
Unable to grow through feeling so strange
Completely worsened by your face
A summers day
Others outside
I'm led in bed with the devil by my side
He whispers in my ear
Thoughts traced, memories unwanted
Having to rehearse spoken pain
You can touch the water
But don't go in deep
Drowning in their blood won't help release
I can feel you tugging at my waist
Taking me back
Needing me incased
Tasting the words, the sourness of your tone
The hunger and vulnerability in your eyes speaks what we know
The soaked cloth smothering my heart
Pushing me down into a hole
Clawing my way up, let me see light
While your standing there with inflamed, false delight
Hearing me scream, a treat for your ears
Lost, bewitched with each sneer
We're both only tortured by unknown fear
Lock me up, chain me up
Pull out the chords
Rip out the vessels one by one engraved in my heart
See the blood trickle
Taste it on your lips
Pour it down your body
Experience the last seconds of warmth it brings
Don't stop now
Remove every organ
Throw away the remains
Just as you did with my feelings
My body will now only go to waste

Very good Shannon
Very descriptive
Thank you 🙂
One of your better works. A visceral penning that hits the gut.
Thank you
Venturing into the macabre! There is however, one quite beautiful line that strikes me with love: "The hunger and vulnerability in your eyes speaks what we know." My heart immediately melts when I see "vulnerability" in another; one of the purest qualities I can imagine - parallels with the beauty of "innocence" ...something that inspires me to protect this person; to love them...
Thank you
Wow...
Thank you 😊
