Lingering around that dark deathly dungeon I call my life,
I find myself staring into its vivid merciless colours,
Colours of my happiness and sadness , my truths and lies,
Each beckons me towards its reality,
For each twisted fate of mine is meant to be,
Hate and love is what every human breeds,
But still, I back away,scared and unsure,
Call me  the faithless one!
Shout inside my soul my hellish sins!
I am much too aware yet blind to everything else,
I nurture inside myself the shallow conceit of this horrid world,
As it tries to blacken out each colour which links me to them,
Playing with MY toys now , this life has stolen away my hope,
As slowly I see this endless cave vomit out fire and blood,
Time closes its door one last time, giving way to its cruel Gods,
And all is gone , the climax now slowly floating at the  edge of my muddy grave,
Dead and insane , the climax of my being there and then slowly letting go!
One season of hate was enough to trample my love of a thousand moons!
I feel my veins turning into ripe slithering snakes,
As they breathe in my blood, ripping their way through my dead pores,
Turning my insides into lethal acid, making me burn and whimper in shame and misery,
For everything is driven out of me with such force that I  have become untouchable one,
I cannot even feel my own death now , my soul has no one to haunt (sadly),
For my poison still lives,  I am the faithless one!

WOW faith...you linger with excelllence in this...amazing imagery and emotions from the dark side......worth the wait my friend...FOR SURE...(smile)
take care, jm

 Do you live by the book, do you play by the rules
Do you care what is thought by others about you
If this day is all that is promised to you
Do you live for the present, the future the past...

Funny, but to write this way shows you do have faith!!
A wonderful read, true description of darkness and pain

Wow faith...that's really all I can say. It was so deep, vivid and I loved the imagery. Well done faith

humming madly
filling my head
with blood
and sorrow
and dread
the executioner's song."
