This was inspired by someone I know
And hate


When home can't be found
Nothingness consumes me
Better to be six feet in the ground
No one to answer my desperate plea

I am alone in these chains
Blood words scribbled on the wall
My hatred and suffering reigns
No one to answer my disintegrating call

He holds me down against his chest
Fire burns in our eyes
He tells me he once was blessed
No one knows of my futile cries

I feel the tears in my skin
If only you had forgiven my crime
Seeping slowing in is sin
But you turned away this time

My lips crack and my throat burns
The shackles tighten
Only a drop of water, my body yearns
My demons don't frighten

Darkness settles around me, now
Cold resides in my soul
Before the throne of Nothing I bow
Ennui, I am black as coal

When the fire stops, the cold remains
Silver slivers of light trickle away
The ashes of hate my mind contains
Only the night is left to stay

As your sins alone corrode my sight
This is the fall, the end of things
If only I could speak, I'd make this right
Death and decay my lifelessness sings

I dance alone in shadows
Left by all to this horrid beauty
I am alone, no one follows
I hear it, watch it, eat away at me

You scorched my life
I am nothing but ice
You surrounded me with strife
I am paying your price

Fire in one hand
Frozen fear on the other
Left in a desolate land
Remaining there under a snowy cover

I am nothing but cold
But fiery hatred consumes me
Because of you, I'm told
You're the Saint of Animosity

Another amazing piece of work. The images were absolutely bone chilling and beautifull. I loved the feel of this poem, so dark and evil, yet sad and lonely. Pleading for forgiveness. I have felt exactly this way before. I loved how emotive it was. it spoke to me so deeply. Keep up the awesome work!

A sign in  the wind
The fatal last breath
Soft prelude to death
Alone
Amidst black roses
