Poison

I cling to defy the art of gravity
Delicacy in twisted tattered throngs
Spinning in some sort of devoid reverie
I revel in the contempt of broken dreams

Still I am enshrouded in loneliness
Each dainty daisy and daffodil dissolving
With each fierce step taken
Still my hollow heart flutters in hope of a better tomorrow

I ache in my blindness as I stumble in the dark
Cavorting in a dark mystic era
Attempts at being gentle and pure
I fail and simply careen to the ground seething

Each shake carries me to another blistered moment
My bare body vivacious in each seizing frolic
I cling to the porcelain throne grip heavy
Each thought dividing into many others

My complicated mind belies itself
I remain shattered and broken
Dying with suffocation of my own blood
My body and soul shrivel into little nothings

    This is an awesome poem. I loved the darkness of this piece. You did well with the word bank you were given. I really enjoyed the read!!! Thank you for entering my contest.

    Seems like you have been writing quite a bit of dark stuff lately. Then I looked at the comments, saw it was a wordbank and perhaps that's the reason why it went to the darkness. I can help with "seizure." You will want "seizing" since seizure is the act of seizing. Hope that helps a bit. I want to thank you for your entry into the following contest: "Already On My Favorites."
