Breathing this last curse
Thorns held upon my skin, and it leaves me smiling
Sanity ceased to conquer my mind
Carving a few words Underneath the flesh
I seek for its approval
But the game stressed its wrath upon me
Shivering sounds of death; it echoes doom
Leave it all behind now and watch me crawl
Seated before the shattered white light
Darkness binds sympathy to its core
Waving to the life that I've dreamt
Embracing gray as I walk through the shadows
Tearing a few pages of what was real
Delusions befriended this thoughtless mind
Ecstatic tragedies keep me awake
It visits; breaking the lives that I've lived

Good read... I liked how the imagery was hidden but so obvious at the same time.
Good job and good luck! -
Nice Poem!!!
I am not sure of the hidden meaning, although I sense there is an anti-christ inuendo. I can see an alternate ending to the crucifixion maybe....... anyways a good read

a little too vague and openly interpretable for my liking, but incredible use of language and a very smooth read. welcome to AP...
