Loneliness my only companion
Haunted by dreams I cannot describe
Unleashing my hate against myself
Bleeding pain from my babbling lips

My arms have been ripped from their sockets
Unceremoniously burned before me
My hate-filled eyes disgust me
As I shamble in my self made pit
My hate simmers deep within
Killing me with each breath
As it punctures my heart
Ripping it wider every second
Screaming a growl from my tortured vocal chords
As blood literally pours from my eyes

Ripping shreds from my shirts
To wrap over the festering wounds
Bleeding from my (once filled with life) eyes
Stumbling around blindly
Meekly mewling weakened sobs
Daily life impossible in my predicament
A hostage to my own hate

Hostage to Hate

Topic: DarkPoetry

Crawling, in this stinking valley of depression
Loneliness my only companion
Haunted by dreams I cannot describe
Unleashing my hate against myself
Bleeding pain from my babbling lips

My arms have been ripped from their sockets
Unceremoniously burned before me
My hate-filled eyes disgust me
As I shamble in my self made pit
My hate simmers deep within
Killing me with each breath
As it punctures my heart
Ripping it wider every second
Screaming a growl from my tortured vocal chords
As blood literally pours from my eyes

Ripping shreds from my shirts
To wrap over the festering wounds
Bleeding from my (once filled with life) eyes
Stumbling around blindly
Meekly mewling weakened sobs
Daily life impossible in my predicament
A hostage to my own hate

Hate really does drag you down.. good write about showing what happens when you hate.. I thought the imagery was awesome in all of it, I could picture it in my head.. and there was even some good old alliteration (meekly mewling)

awesome job Joel.. i hope you can come to terms with your hate if this poem concerns you

You never cease to amaze me.

Kisses,

Your use of gory
mutilation is very
effective in address
to what you are
conveying
emotionally.
It's very visceral.
