Its pretty self-explanatory, but for those of you who don't know Norwegian the title means Lost Life. Enjoy. * [bodytext] => I wish I was dead
Dead, like the fallen, crushed leaves
Dead, instead of slowly suffocating
Under a mountain of pain

Weeping red hot tears
Since there is no excuse for being
Staring out of eyes that cannot see
Blinded by loneliness, pain,
And your ***** ignorance

Eloquence flees
Head bowed before Sorrow's touch
Lonely eyes, inadequate disguise
Cutting myself to be set free
I can't live like this anymore

This brings no relief
Only an aching detachment
And the sound of tapping keys [comments] => 7 [counter] => 250 [topic] => 32 [informant] => bobotheclown [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 20 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => SadPoetry )

What a painful poetic piece. I hope everything is not as bad as it seems here. Your gut wrenching expression here is purely qualified on all poetic cylinders. A great write, hard to read without feeling sad.
