Scarred and scratched is this side of the door
the trail of blood leading me here once more
licking my way to where I have been
drowning in this suicide room again
licking the wounds from my abortion
finding conformity in corrosion
being the reject of the womb
sick and dangerous, they had to sedate and lock me away in this room
sedated mind dragging me down
to where all the baptized drown
to where the angel's are hanged
to where the virgin's are taint
their bodies drowning in rivers of decay
now beside the corrosion I lay
Jesus find's me, holding out his hand for my redemption
but then I realize that hellucination is just a druggy symptom
I have tripped into the kingdom of liars
now I join the crucified lining the funeral pyers

Precious Soul ...
sometimes it is necessary to be confronted with the past agonies ... BUT: see the "kingdom of liars" for what it is ... There is another Kingdom, where you are safe, already.
Your poem touched my heart. Deeply! Please accept my hug, Amanda!
Blessed be, Precious One.
Love
Myra

This was a rather deep, emotional poem. The punctuation and spelling should have been checked first, but generally, it made my mind grab the intensity of the depth rooting from these words. Great job poet!

This is really powerful and very well penned.
