Am I Alone?
Am I the only one who knows
how this feels?
I hope I am.
A hope beyond hope
that is deeply lyrical
And unsatisfying.
Like a taco, dry and salty.
A sea shore, a tall cliff by the roadside
would do
to throw oneself off.
How does it feel?
Tempting as it seems
i would rather drink and drown
my sorrows in cheep beer
dealt by the devil.
bloodshed, murder, spite
are all things friends find
Amusing
impacting like bullets of wood
they never think of the splinters they cause.
or the shifts, and the buckles of grinding madness
my mind suffers
from a chaos that writhes and scratches and burns;
all goodness and happiness and love.
Chaos is itself chaotic
Here one moment and gone in two
or three or nine or a million
hours lying awake in bed
Hot but cold, smiling but sorrowful.
The pains I cause people through my own existence.
Better to place it in an unreachable place
away from sparkling eyes, beautiful smiles and happy hearts
Of which to hurt them is an evil
Worthy of nought but Diablo.
Alas, my chosen path.
Alas, the hardest path.
Alas, the right path
Is the most unjustified one of all.
Am I Alone in my Strife?
Am I the Only one who knows how it is to love
through a twisted mind and blackened heart?
I hope I am.
A hope that is beyond all hope
All Oblivion.
