Array ( [sid] => 115558 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Eternity [time] => 2006-02-28 04:01:23 [hometext] => [bodytext] => I could bleed to death from this pain.
Sometimes I think that I will.
Or I could drown in the sea of my loneliness.
A vast open sea with no blue horizon.
It’s so quiet in my room at night;
So quiet that I can hear my own sad thoughts,
whispering with cracked voices.
And those flashbacks from the bad old days attack me from behind.
Never right in the face but always sneaking up on me
for a good blow in the back of the head.
Another minute passes and it seems like eternity.
I spend eternity in my room each night, waiting for the blood to flow.
Could I go to sleep and never wake up?
Just close my eyes in this world and open them in the next.
Death holds no glory and no dignity.
But I do not value this life either.
To escape from the damage and the wreckage
and leave them to clean up the mess I left behind.
I made too much trouble of my own.
It will take eternity to erase this evil karma.
As all these thoughts pass me by
and I think of something else instead,
I’m still waiting for the blood to flow.

It was like I was right there with you. A heartfelt beautiful write. With the rain will come the sun and it will come. Stay strong.
