[bodytext] => Your inspiration has abandoned you Filled with a beautiful disaster You're confused beyond endless measure And no one follows you thereafter You drove a sword of hate into my neck Left me down and immobilized It's always on you, said the broken omen And I'm always the one who dies Inhibitions taking over you And nothing it seems could ever escape You questioned my skill for throwing it Brought me down with fear and hate This hateful understanding And the beauty that lies within I used to feel the warmth inside Close my eyes as I sink into my skin Crowded corners surround me Everyone is running away I wish I could disappear forever Find myself in some other path and day This world that collides within us Save yourself as only you could These darkening clouds around me Know what to do, but not that I should Echoes of the footsteps The paths we all chose to set You've walked into my shallows Your choice was that of regret I have abandoned all my values Sunk into a deepening despair No one understands me this time And it's even worse because you are not there Solemn and unchanging I sit here by myself I've turned inside out again And I can turn to no one else Always straining and breaking my back Just to get a closer view I'm breaking down all over again And I'm waiting to crash into you Basic at it's best today I've searched until I've bled My feet are tripped on razor blades And this awful echo that repeats in my head All I want is to be rid of you Smile and fall into your eyes But as I said so many other times It's only me, the one who dies [comments] => 2 [counter] => 142 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Exodus-On-Life [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )
