I have the biologic need To blister the skin and bleed I must fill the darkest hole I must give in and cede control To walk away from everyone Not be the center or second to none Avoiding the contact of humankind But craving the flesh in the mind Screaming to see if still alive Feeling the pain as it dies inside Dealt a blow with each and every word That my soul had never heard Protect me from the falling star Of the want that is no more I’ve been waiting for this for so long And now, the moment is gone |

Screaming to see if still alive Oh, wow... such magnificent intensity!! It pulsates with pain and perplexity... and is so good I forgot to breathe. |

Chalmette Guy - There is a poetic fatalism to this one from the dark side of the character, a necessity for introspection. I liked the macabre impact. Namyh |
