The pains of a diminishing life ever expanding.
Swirling ebon tarnish looming over hopes light collapsing,
Haunting like the incandescent moon eclipsed and ceasing its struggle.
Rains of crimson acid plaguing thought washing away the pieces left,
With the words of another’s hope punishing the whole.
Tainted whims struggle to reign control of what is loved,
As this love wanders aimlessly back toward the light of broken promises.
Tangled webs these animalistic emotions spread,
As the reaper to feed upon vulnerable breath.
The light of hope and the rhythm of a true love,
Only imbuing fallacies to decapitate the heart of a human soul.
Unknowing of worth to be cherished upon golden delicacies,
This masquerade will asphyxiate all who care to play.
Broken from belief, dissolution by devotion.
Faltering from thirst, of the taste another.
Defectively imprisoned in solitude,
This soul will fade forgotten.

I agree with the list that you have this in. The poem is painful, depressing and dark. It is well written and expresses the decayed despair of the image.

I think you're just an insanely awesome writer.
Wow, wow, this is amazing.
Your lines are long, but the fact that you put so much imagery into them makes it okay.
Thumbs up fer sure.

I could break them into seperate lines, but that would just add length and have the same effect I think. Thank you for the comment and kind words.
