bellowing this sickness out with a yell
blood drips down the windowpane of life
porcelain face with blackened eyes and crimson lips
grimaces with internal sadness
she steps gently on the broken souls
collecting about her beaten boots
her black dress swirls in the blowing wind
tick tock tick tock
a clock chimes out of tune
in this forgotten place of pain and regret
plodding on, tears stream down her caked face
red hair plastered to her watery visage
fingernails of crystal dig into her arms
to awaken her from this hell of torture and destruction

she awakens
in her bed
from this dream
shaken and torn
she lays her weary head back on her pillow
her masochism begs her to return
to her dream of comfort...
for, this IS her comfort

^_^ I like these 'thoughts' you have this was very vivid
'she steps gently on the broken souls
collecting about her beaten boots'
This was all filled with amazing imagery, but those 2 lines really caught my eye. Great poem!

Michele, When you put your mind to it you certainly don't mince words or imagery. This was very lurid........and true to it's title.

The coward in me didn't like it at all but the poet in me says that is a great piece of writing.

the clamor of silence,
shatters the panes of my sleep,
dreamlessness breaks the continuance
of the reality in which closed eyes weep...

fanasical... dreamy... nightmarish... ah... better than reality...
