~Dysphoria~

A house where melancholy and solace collide,
causing sanity to loose its embrace.
Iridescent uncertainty claims the day
on the moon of troubled cries.
And only the daisies talk...
to the walls because the trees turned away.
This lovely world is on its knees
suffering from the beggars' disease.
A tasteless sigh greets you at the door
and waving good-bye is the last thing you see
before the ruins of your heart break free.
You are left to enchant me...
bury me in a landfill of nothingness,
like a thought gone by, or a memory that died.
A curse of ages...
scavenging from the beginning of time.
Affliction is the attention you give
and the endless endings are the only
things that keep you alive in the house
where melancholy and solace collide.

hey this is pretty good, it makes you slow way down to take it all in because the words are so concentrated in potency...very deep and you've got some good imagery here, I like =)
