My World

It feels like I'm stuck in between heaven and hell,

angels and demons at war,

ripping off wings and horns,

my souls being torn,

dark forces are being born,

all i see are creatures of different realms and those of night,

no one around me can see my fright,

so to save may life and sanity i must fight,

stuck in this never ending abyss,

dark hellish pit,

where I'm wishing Devils and demons didn't exist,

i can no longer persist,

so i give up and get on my knees take the claw of a demon and slice my wrist.

    Haunting

    A rather dark piece that speaks of great courage on part of the author. Always in life there is light intermingled with the anguish and I wish this poem had hinted on some of this and perhaps finished on a more positive note. However for me is a strong and very visual verse.

    hi...

    well i just read a couple of your pieces and i want to find time later to look closer at your stuff. my comment so far is that i really like the first 3 lines to My World...there's really something to build on here...why's it good?...hmm, not sure but u definitely keep things quiet in this opening and then get to the more blatant, hard words after line 3/4. thats good too but the first 3 lines really bite. merci, cool as heck. i'm from a songwriting background too (soca music) and poetry is a really good way to sharpen technique, get the best, quickest images etc. happy days. keep touch. sunday.

    So very sad. Speaks of the inner struggle many face. I had this kind of battle for close to 20 years... so I can absolutely relate!

    This is a good poem, but it isn't a dirty pretty poem...check the other poems in the contest and you will see what dirty pretty is and maybe write a new one in that style...removing this one...sorries...

    Wow, this is pretty deep and sad. That's a terrible position to find yourself in. I love the imagery in this. One thing I can say is to never give up and let it all envelope you like that. Great work and good luck to you in this contest!
