Alone, in despair i lie.


Despaired Thoughts

I live in despair

Yet I do not care

I just breathe in this vile air

And sing a song into the dark



I feel the hatred running down my skin like a deadly lotion

My heart set this game in motion

My minds sea and my soul's ocean

Corrupted dreams, and nightmares that are stark



Shades of sinister hopes fill my eyes

Tears of detestation flow down my face as I cry

Fear controls my actions to whatever I try

I walk alone in this alley of deserted hopes



A cry from my voice yields hopes to pass away

I live these damned nights to the horrid days

Walking in a shadow of loss, here is where I stay

I cannot handle this, I do not like this, I begin to loosen a rope



I tied it onto the ceiling

A noose I begin constructing

This is where I will stand dying

No fears shall I keep



I pull the noose around my neckline

I stand upon a chair, when I jump I shall loose my spine

Upon my body the vultures will dine

A loss to my family small, a loss to my friends small, a loss to myself, deep

F.i.in.e Moods The PoetBay support member heart!
despair is clearly described here... very deep and easy to believe... an effective write, for sure... the ups and downs of life don't escape anyone, I don't believe... take care now... xx
