It is the pain that I wake to... Perhaps, it has been left there to remind me That this could not have been just a dream. It is the sound of my owned tortured screams... Which echo again and again Shattering what remains of my mind. It is these thoughts, my fragmented thinking And it refuses to leave me Haunting me, caught in this snare. It is the agony of being made to suffer Suffer this endlessly The pain is so unforgiving now. It is the tears that i have tasted Nothing more has escaped this Not me, i am kept by the angst now. It is knowing that i have only died in my dreams And that when i sleep i must wake to this...here, in this life. Shade |

Sad. Yet the more I read it, the more I felt that you are starting to come out of the shade, and into a warming light. Peace. And WELCOME to Passions. |

Shade: This was a good piece. It too hit home, subjectively. I must wonder about your line "It is the sound of my owned tortured screams..." Are you trying to say "my own tortured screams" or is there something beyond that, which necessitates the use of "owned" instead? Just a thought. Anyhow, welcome to DP and Passions. "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh" |

Magus Thanks for the post! I understand what your asking about the my "owned tortured screams" I don't know that I can explain my answer very well. I feel like I'm terrible at expressing myself, but...it's actually in reference to the screams of others, which tend to haunt me. Every bit as much as my own, others that were involved in my past. Made to suffer along side me. I say 'owned' because..well..my screams...they belong to me. And the others, they don't even want to confront the reason that they ever screams. As I said, I'm sure the explaination won't make much sense. Shade |

I completely understand. I too own a few screams. I have a dark past in some respects. "If history is to change, let it change. If the world is to be destroyed, so be it. If my fate is to die, I must simply laugh" |
