This is a little something I wrote during a very dark time in my life. And I think that this poem clearly defines just how much it hurt at the time. I've known pain... Digging, scratching, scraping pain, Splitting my soul in two like a knife thrust into my chest, A pain washed in tears gone dry and sprinkled in pieces of shattered dreams Yes, I've known that pain. I've known loss... Empty, gaping, expansive loss, Turning beautiful memories into a painful black hole, Standing by in awe as the wrecking ball of life tears down what the heart has built. Yes, I've known that loss too. I've known hate... Writhing, seething, burning hate. The sight of nails digging into pillows, Wishing it was human flesh, The growing lust for blood and suffering flowers as thoughts of torture fill your mind Yes, I've known that hate as well |
