With every breath i exhale my heart gives way,it succumbs to the filth and begins to decay.
I feel so useless for I have nothing here to gain,there is no strength left,only the shadow of fear remains.
My heart grows so weary from this infection,that was inflicted by all their malice and deception.
I tried to see with the blindest of eyes,I tried to see through their tapestry of lies.
It blanketed my heart and diseased my soul,it birthed in me an emptiness that left me broken and cold.
So now i stumble around in a state of confusion,living each day as an empty delusion.
As each day passes my mind fills with new regrets,as their cancerous lies feed the growing hollow in my chest.
All their hate abandoned me bleeding in the cold,and left me in this nightmare helplessly alone.
Their hatred suffocates me as it dwells deep within,I never thought that all these lies would result in my end...

Thank You For Entering
always keep writing -
Nice rhyme but I feel that the write would be enhanced by making it into stanzas. For example:
With every breath i exhale my heart gives way,
it succumbs to the filth and begins to decay.
I feel so useless for I have nothing here to gain,
there is no strength left,only the shadow of fear remains. -
Outstanding
This is so sad and I think it refelcts how many people feel these days with all the stress in the world today. A fine poem with good flow that speaks out.
