Painfilled heart-- 2.26.2009

Confusion infiltrates my devastated mental state I'm in!

Love shattered like shards of splinters that pierce me through my wounded skin

Anger fills me like a flask of wine overflowing with madness

as I'm trapped in this bitterness of dark depression of sadness.

The illusion of a fairytale I once believed in, sinks deeper into a feeling of inconsistency

between reality and what as a child had faith in..

regret overshadows me, encompasses my every sense of emotion

my heart bleeds with a cry that screams into an explosion

corrosion stains every crevice of my heart with doubt as I bellow from the depths of me, "I WANT OUT!!!"

Tears fill my cup of disbelief, as I try to stand tall without strength in my feet

my soul is weak as I find myself trapped in this nightmare of an inescapable sleep.

My hands quiver with just the thought of facing my emotional demise

as my body shivers in this cold grip of senseless lies of what I once held true

a love of dreams come true and castles of gold and rainbows of happily ever after, but this perfect world of mine has shattered as the blue birds and nightingales scatter into dark caves of insane laughter.

Hunger to live no longer matters as my heart is overwhelmed with the hymns of melancholic clatter

drowning out the sweet voice of harmony that once danced with me under moonlit balconies.

Love fades into the cold dark storm of uncertainty.......

regret overshadows me,

regret overshadows me, encompasses my every sense of emotion

my heart bleeds with a cry that screams into an explosion

 

 

That is a very powerful line,   I can feel it.
