In a state of limbo

0 posted 2006-02-12 04:27 PM



An alienated outcast,
Atrophy in life,
A lost past,
And the hard driven knife.
The schizophrenic god,
The perpetual mind(blank) motion machine,
And the never-ending string of obscenity,
And the weighing of responsibility.
The dead end job,
And the situations which leave me robbed,
The car which I drive,
Headed to knowhere,
And the fight to pretend I am alive.
A tribute to affliction,
A rejection of affect,
A giving up on acting,
That is the end of that.
Removal of the mask,
Keep the circuitry in view,
For all the world is a stage,
And the actors I refuse to abuse.
The air is thin,
I stepped out of my skin,
Thought outside of the box
and now continuously writhe in sin.
Gave up on my smokes,
Got to the point where it became a joke,
And now I am searching for another high,
Perhaps what I am looking for is the time to die.
Keep checking my watch,
What for, there is nothing to see,
Accept the working of the machine,
And the incessant bleeding of a heart that seems to be bursting at the seams.
