In my own private hell...(PA).

Wandering thru the rooms of my mind
dancing with images harsh and unkind
I spin things there
with wreckless reluctance that spit and stare.
Taking black pitched soul ripping it apart
and twist it until spewing words slap your face and heart.
Walk gently thru my mind
for here things of horror love and pine.
Need is written here in dread
with hunger that longs to endlessly be fed
Craddling gently ghosts of frenzies kind
swaying sweetly upon the last threads of a sane mind.

alibaster,

This must be what they mean when they say
Hanging on by a thread

From the first line, I was hooked.
I was left with a feeling of falling .... barely hanging on ...
and that at any moment sanity would be broken and never able to be
put back together.
You're words are powerful and this was
well expressed.

~Sheri

left by those who got there first"

I was hanging as well ~Rayne


For in much wisdom is much grief
& he who increases knowledge
    increases sorrow...
