PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

I am lost to the emptiness
that has become my life
in the clutches of what is wrong
I struggle to find the shores to
what is right
my eyes see things that stare
back at me in such fright
in all this madness
lead me out of the numbness
and corner me a little more insight
I find myself all at once
the victim and villain
emotionally abandoned
and mentally damned
Oh, my beautiful God
I created this hellish monster
myself
who pins my gaze like a ghost
looking back at me
so subtle now in his slight of
hand dealings
and so stringent with even his
morning toast
I think the end has always been
far nearer than I before thought
one tiny push
and the whole thing bursts through
9 plus years worth
of
'Absolute Rot'
wiping now away
all the emotional dead wood
from its skeletal remains
I begin to build from it
a glorious vessel
and joyously in it
I know I sail away..............
