Hands clutching the locket
Shaking at the mention of you
Your still alive
But how dead you’ve become in my eyes
Everything I’ve ever done
Was never enough, I was never enough
I’m just like the unwanted scribble of a pen
You cant erase me, but you can cover me up
Drive the nail in my hands
Don’t stop there
Next the feet, pain unbearable
What a fucked up crucifixion
Do I still look kissable
I’m screaming inside
Reaching in and reaching out
Body wanting to tear the skin
You never nailed me to the cross
I died within
I crucified myself,
The day I realized I’ve never been me
I’m a fake portrait
Whose colours are fading, in black and white
So someone hand me another nail
It’s the day to crucify
Watch the blood drip stale
Its time for a nine inch beautify
Selfish sacrifice for a wasted life
Dear Celeste, untold billions of us through
the millenia have given away our power to unripe
fruit.. human souls not yet soft with compassion
.. your poem's imagery is powerful
Wow, amazing poem, so much emotion expressed here. I love this poem.
