A Soul's Elude

by Renegade Angel   Dec 23, 2011


Lying down with the bleeding scars.

Infesting my mind with drowning memories of happily ever afters.

The making of peace that cannot hold up.

My soul drowns in the insistent vitae.

Carrying myself is such a burden, with these heavy stitches.

Thinking of that place where the lake drowned out my screams and cries.

I dry my blood and tears off the delicate tiles, and carry this mess to the drowning shores and hold my tangled head with tired eyes.

The stars light up my soul.

The constant bleeding that hopes will soon dry up and bandage.

The sky holds up my pain, and I alone can withhold my soul and dry the blood.

Closing my worn out eyes, a smile of determination spreads across and lets the light illuminate.

I am no longer afraid of life.

    This is a very very dark poem with a lot of emotions written.

    As I read this I had an image of a person who either cuts themselves or tries to commit suicide. The bleeding, bandiges and stiches come together in this poem.

    A very sad poem as well - very sorry if this is something you have gone through
