He lives within the tortured recesses of his soul
Inside his darkness, where no one can stroll
Dwelling within a faceless world divided by fear
He would know this pain, but can no longer feel
An emotionally dead silhouette divided from society
No words reach him, he is forever cloaked in anxiety
For within his mind is an everlasting war of pain
That which has brought him to his knees, forever in chains
Between the searing winds and the raging tide
Inside the agony of his tortured mind
Locked in a battle between right and wrong
Inside his misery is where he belongs
His transparent eyes have forever been open to despair
In the depths of his pain, within his own nightmare
It was always his fate to fight against decay and the heartless
To fight against ignorance, torment and the pain within silence
For he is a prisoner, shedding blank tears of compassion
For a real world, he fights to bring salvation
For this poisoned world, tonight he breaks his chains
All he desires, is to free the world from pain

Poetry is passion,imagination & soul mixing together....
Words
Unique words
I do my best, to try not to use the same words in a poem more than once, (except maybe the title word) and I also try to focus on what I want to say, rather than rhyming. But so far, rhyming just comes easy!
