Must be alive to feel like I'm dying again.

How could this be happening again.
I knew better then to let this heart beat within.

Inspiration reawakened to breathe life into cold ink.
Floating over peaceful waters but about to sink.

Heart throbbing strong with thoughts of luck.
Dreams set free from where they were stuck.

How fast this changes, flying into the sky,
Just to fall the moment you leave with no goodbye.

Clouds cut deep like a thousand liquid blades.
Watching ground creep closer as tears fade.

Chest feeling hollow as heart fights to strike slow cadance.
Painful thoughts that there must never really have been a chance.

Fated to be false before it ever started.
I barely noticed when the warmth inside departed.

Crashing into the earth leaving a charred crater beneath.
I can hear the raging ocean as its waters seethe.

Body broken, refusing to move, grows quiet.
Brain in chaos as synapses fire in riot.

Soul screams silent cry booming through the empty spaces.
Heart finally still as stone now replaces.

Flesh twitching as I stand death controlling me like a marionette.
Face iced over and bleak as it is set.

I must have been alive to feel like I am dying.
Tounge is ash, on it I am no longer relying.

Now it is done and I know I will never again die.
For my life is over, left in that crater forever to lie.

Don't really know where this came from. But it had to be written.

Say what you will.

    What a powerful but beautiful write. You did a wonderful job on this piece. I especially loved the line that reads..."Clouds cut deep like a thousand liquid blades." That is such a beautiful sentence as it was created by you so therefore you are brilliant!!!
    Sincerely,

      I had fun writing this actually. I know that's kinda weird but it's true. As I wrote this it actually played out like a movie and I just tried to describe it. Thank you for the comment.

    This is good, but very sad.
    I feel a response coming on!! OH NO! lol

    The World is not all kind
    The Love is not all Lust
    In this World it's hard,
    Hard to trust anyone.

    To awake while asleep
    To Breathe while dead
    Is to feel pain, heartache
    A bottomless pit of flame

    We are all here to live;
    We are all here to die,
    but not all of us are here
    Will you be here for me?

    I am always around, here
    I am a phone call, message
    I am the person in thought
    when everything else stops

    Second chances don't die;
    but they do escape, pass by
    Tears crack down my face
    Like lightning! Water stings

    If only my soul could be whole
    but it's not my fault it's yours
    you lie, you cheat, you are
    truly the meaning of deceit

    I will feel no remorse because
    I know I tried will all my heart
    When everything was breaking
    I was there to help the tearing

    When everything was wrong,
    I turned around made it right
    Then you left me like a thief
    into the night with nothing.

    You left me with nothing,
    but memories stabbing me
    Their blood will haunt you,
    Your second chance has fled.
