Untitled 1
written by Lothiriel07:40 PM 12/16/04Shadows creep, pounding nerves
Painful cries in silence - I crawl
Curling into myself, lost till break of day – I hide
I refrain from scratching at the light
Young yet so old - fearing nothing but fear itself
Youthful in dream - pleasant, foul in thought
Seemingly ungrateful for what I have, what I've had
Seeing what I could be
Wishes, hopes, endurance -
swept away in the current
Who would have me now? Taken, broken
Spine shivers at the sound of my own voice
Whispers in my head
"you are worth a thousand hearts of gold"
Where will I be in one day, an eternity -
faining joy, raped of all integrity
Will envelopes me then leaves me bare
Teardrop falls over porcelain cheek
pathing a way to my soul
Resting in the crevice of my heart's faint beat
Am I beat? Have they taken all, everything I have?
So strong, yet so weak - am I weak?
They will not take me away by God
They cannot have what I keep hidden
in the fortress that is me |
