AFTERMATH

The well of pain,
inexhaustible
It flows through me,
like needles

Cruel sanity,
is picking
Harsh mockery,
all around

There's no escape,
from this existence

Angel,
take me away
far...

I have felt like this many times...then I  go and take a warm vanilla soak and forget  what it was to make  me feel that way.

It was not my lips you kissed, but my soul."

Short and with all the punch needed.  All in all a well done work in my eyes.  The simplest of things in a piece sometimes stick out the most and grab the reader.  You kept it simple and to the point.  All the reader can do is grab onto it and ride the "aftermath" of your poem in reflection.

Well done man,
James

Good cannot exist without evil.  Darkness I embrace.

Must agree with James here, simple yet so very well said. At times I find the shortest of works the most mind grabbing and here you have done it well.
