The Mind's Battle

Destruction whispers faithfully within my hollow core-
Strength of life falters within barricades of resistance-
Memories of past faults become vivid-
Once placed under microscopic lenses of light.
Seeming to fade without command
Layers of paper like faith serve no purpose
In the midst of a gentle chaos I alone have created

While the pit of despair bleeds insight from its walls,
My conscience provides little assurance of safety-
Spearing my frozen heart,
The devil marks his territory.

Destruction whispers repeatedly within my minds thoughts.
Stepping in line, the tune of miserable bliss plays solely for me.
Seeming to fade without a word of apprehension
Petty thoughts of faith serve no purpose
When flying with their angelic wings is their intent.
…That has always been, their sole desire.

    The darkness and the subtle hints about the past and religion ..... I like this. I also like the style you used to write it.

    Beautiful and dark.
    I wish you luck.

    So painful here, the death again inside you, the hell in every feelings, losing and falling apart...
