My heart is bleeding
pouring blackness down my feet
In these waning hours of early morn
seeking... but never finding any sleep

Loneliness abounds
so thick a knife couldn't pierce
Clouds of pain succumb me
suffocating me with something fierce

Like a disease which has sought me out
one that seems to have no cure
It seeps into the souls of thee
whose heart was once so pure

The blackened blood surrounds
swallowing me in serum thick
No longer can I see the surface
no longer do I hear the clock tick

Death it has overcome me
internally eaten... leaving this shell
Hollowness is what I walk with
in this heart and mind of hell

Oh sweetie!! This was so heart wrenching!

I am happy to see you pouring your heart out onto the paper, sis. It is
good for the soul .. and my GOD! what incredible things you have
to say.

This struck me .. in the most painfully beautiful way. I am aching
for your suffering, but I am so entirely impressed with your work.

Exceptional writing, from an exceptional woman and poet!

love and peace,

~MG
[who is extremely glad to call you friend. :)]
