An Uneasy Slumber

by Katie   Dec 4, 2006


Pain, the salvation of my sanity,
seeping through my skin
like the watery grave that will someday befall me.
The pain that I feel,
can compare to no other,
Betrayal, Torment, Lies...
things used against my naked heart.
The walls that once protected me have fallen,
no longer to stand proud.
I'm crumpled like a broken doll,
thrown to the side,
never to be seen again.
Tears fall down my face,
blotchy red eyes that seek
the compassion I once had.
The ones I trusted have receeded into the shadows,
leaving me scarred and unprotected,
leaving me to fend for myself.
The love I once felt,
has turned to hatred and pain,
the ones I love are no longer,
who they used to be,
transformed into which has taunted me
throughout my entire existence.
Lost, walking through this life
with which everything I once had,
once held dear is gone.
I can feel my blood,
rushing through my veins,
blood which could so easily flow.
One prick and the crimson liquid flows
freely over my wrists,
a burning sensation, then warmth, and darkness.
The dark god will come and free me from my prison,
a prison in which my cold heart is the guardian.
Thanatos will help me sleep...
and forget all of which has happened.
