my own little world

0 posted 2005-07-23 12:23 PM



all seems hopeless
and the green has decayed
trees grow dying
and the pulse under me
seems to fade

all feels broken
as the dust falls to ash

remember me,
in your breathless nights
heart sinched
gut crying days

I won't
forget you just yet
I won't
leave you forver
brother.

Pounding
Numbing
screaming
decieving...

loving
holding
dying
needing

you sit down
in your tired state of mind
on the chair
whispering to yourself
"are you there?
why am i alive
who is right
who is wrong...

I want to
bleed"

but you are so messed up
and the pain is pouring on the floor
reflected on the thin metal
where you break the fragile skin
taking blood lust in

I don't want to see
i don't want to see
you so messed up
so let it be
let it be
let it be
a new day

erase all your past
renew the bending branches
by lifting the wieghts
from tired limbs

forgive me.
I am sorry I died.

This is so painful. I hope you can find your way back to healing soon.

I like the dark hopeless overtone. Enjoyed.

"I have gone away. The bed is cold and empty. Trees bend their boughs toward the earth. And nighttime birds float as black faces."
