*Note to everyone: I know it's been a while since I've posted, but here we go again. I apologize if the content is too graphic, I do not see it as such, but some may get offended, and for those who remember me, my poems were removed often.* Back and Forth cannot deal with this don't know what's happening everyone is against me everyone is lying lying, lying swirling, swirling damp fog engulfs helpless to fight it tired of all this cannot go on cannot stay here caught in a web of deceit and pain can't bring myself to think it burns it cuts it aches no more thinking only rocking gently, gently sway back and forth back and forth back and forth comfort finds itself in numbness callus to the world around me close my eyes and wish it away darkness before me one step at a time fall head first under sea of dreams in rigor mortis wanting more wanting less again I digress wandering constantly never stay stable up, down around the corner to a place where I can't feel this no more crying tears of blood running down my made up face eyes propped open mouth sewn shut swaying ever back and forth back and forth back and forth her pulse ran away after her mind too bad her body left both behind keeping secrets watching time tick, tock make it stop hands of hours slashing at the wrists of the minutes foolish moments wasting eternity bleeding away then comes numbness then comes torture then comes swaying back and forth back and forth back and forth close your eyes dream it away see the walls close in watch it all get closer to you glimpse of everything be okay can I touch you? hold me close please don't let it get me what is it I cannot tell you because I want you to stay need the nothing need the numbness don't leave I beg I plea alone the darkness is catching up cannot flee it any longer it is now engulfing me crouch down low touch the ground hold my knees bite my lip salty droplets now flow freely as I sway back and forth back and forth back and forth |

WHOA, that poem was really REALLY graphic, but it was really really good. I loved that poem. Its the kind of poem that sucks you in. It was really scary actually, it was so sad too  . That was a great write.LP1 |

Excellent! I really like the dark nature of your poem. I am trying to write one about suicide to enter on this dark poetry page, I hope you will read it when I do enter it. |
