Tortured by life it seems
Agony filled with sadness
Never comes to an end
The sun brings more darkness
The moon has no glow
Hopeless dreams
The only kind I know
Without energy
I have no seeds to sew
My soul is in rapid decline
Better men than I
Have hung from thinner twine [comments] => 5 [counter] => 450 [topic] => 13 [informant] => jamesstockdale [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

Having been there (and still so at times), this is a painful, though real and brutal read.

If only I were a poet and had the words to lessen your pain. But alas, the mightiest poet that ever breathed (of which we share a molecule of air they breathed every minute or so) is toothless as a newborn in aiding you-

work through the pain. start by dissecting the primary source and deconstruct the dynamic that led to such abysmal inner angst.

You are your own jailer and prisoner- learn that- the keys are jangling on your belt if you have desire (not all do, of course) to pluck them to your betterment.

//Damn, the anguish, the pain. Yet, great use of metaphors. Indeed pain to poets brings great poetry and here in lies a perfect example.

Another wower, Jimmy!!!!
