The Dark Place
If you ever saw into me
you would see the place where I usually am
dark sorrow floods the ether
the ground is spotted
with my blood
the half healed wounds
inflicted by others
I want to close myself off
and just wallow in my own pain
but then the sadness would never go away
no lapse in the torture
no healing at all
instead I keep myself open
where I can be hurt
and my heart ripped out
the pain lets me know I'm alive
as it drowns me
swirling within a whirlpool of sorrow
nothing to cling to
all there is
is me and the painful sorrow
I feel the walls closing in on me
the air is filled with the screams of the damned
and I realise
they are my own
