Clawing out my own throat.

by HappieMappie   Feb 13, 2013


These footsteps I keep hearing
I sense that someone's staring
This eerie unfamiliar feeling
As if someone is peering
Into my racing heart.

It seems I'm constantly doubting
The companions I trust so dear
They notice that I'm unconsciously frowning
I'm aware that I am drowning
Inflicted by this disease.

The footsteps that travel behind me
Are gradually growing louder
And I'm as scared as I can be
I'm choking on terror and I can hardly breathe
Aimlessly walking face first into my own paranoia.

My neck doesn't seem too well
It feels like maggots clawing at my throat
Ha! It's beginning to swell
What's wrong with me? No one could tell
And now I'm destroying everyone I loved.

These wounds are getting worse
And I know that I am dying
It is my blood they thirst
For they call this sickness a curse
But what have I done wrong?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Yeah, I got the idea from an anime. I actually really like it.

    Nothing... You've done nothing wrong... I really think that this was a really excellent poem... Though it could use some work... I don't know... It feels wrong... As if somehow your showing something that's a lie, but with some truth... As if it's a diamond covered in dust...
