9/14/2003
The day is coming…

9/15/2003
Days of kissing razorblades
Serve now as nostalgia
Recently the mirrors of my walls
Have been tainted by the blood
From a soulless one
Even thy shadows against the wall
Be heard screaming, weeping,
Hours of tantrums
For recognition
Of death for Death

9/16/2003
Many moans could be heard
Vibrating radiantly from the wall
They are from the many voices
That lie within my head
But I just let them taste pleasure
For it will eventually turn to pain
And I let them cry out
As they bleed from their fatal rusty scrape

9/17/2003
I can see the lady of the night
Waltzing around my bed
Digging her claws into my body,
My heart,
My soul,
Myself
For me to give up control
And I bled

9/18/2003
As I drift into her alone
I can still hear their whispers
That are ever-so laced
By the embroidery of Death
And they continue to play tricks on my eyes
To confuse what is dark and what is light
What is them and what am I
What is Heaven and what is Hell
What is love and what is hate
What is life and what is Death

I drift into the uncertain

9/19/2003
So the walls enclose me
And her hands cover my fragility
The darkness engulfs my frailty
The world saltines my tears
And Death drowns the pain

9/20/2003
Her love is kind…
The Day has come…

Love is only an excuse to hurt and to get hurt... Knowledge brings ye fear.

A river of change is rushing over me, through me. Forfeit to the waters, forget the past, live in the present.

Michael:

oh this is one amazing write here

I drift into the uncertain

ahhh yes . . . all the time
BUT the ideal of it tinkered with
how you have displayed here
such anguish as a daily log
of such thoughts, pain
agony actually
as a journal entry to the very last day
well done
xxoo

This is brilliant, so deep and dark, one to make you sit on the edge of your seat. Maggie
