Tenderly in his Shame

She wanders thru an endless sea
of words hidden deep within a soul
of unclearity.
Dancing upon the black water
with daemons that devour the threads
of her inner matter
as she strokes their egos
with her cold touch.
Escaping into lands
of hidden lust.
Holding tight to Insanity's hands
as she spirals down
with inconceivable trust.
Drowning in wasted words
she whispers to her salvation,
calling him by his only name,
Darkness,
As he engulfs her body tenderly in his shame.

"There is an alter ego which
dwells in every soul..."
a-alibaster

"I am as I am, nothing more, nothing less,
I am tears of pain, tears of Death.

I can relate to this poem as I suffered depression which was the worst time of my life, feeling helpless, smothered by the cloak of darkness and stuck down a hole that I couldn't get out of. Fortunately, I climbed out but there are so many others who just can't and my heart bleeds for those people. I have written a couple of poems about depression also. Take care......Sue

This takes my breath away. You present this well, and I believe you've found your words again, my fried.
