A lonesome skeleton boy.
Unfilled,
Worthless.
Aching,
With each beat
Of his exposed heart.
Sorrowed,
It lies,
Suspended within,
Floating beneath
Non-existent flesh.
Forced to endure
The stinging
Of the inconsolably cool wind,
Cutting,
Slicing through veins.
Simple,
Pure tears
Leak from dark,
Barren eye sockets.
Soft tendrils,
Spilling forth from below cobwebbed lids.
Beautifully they fall,
Dance,
Captivating.
Luring forth his acid princess.
Burning,
She takes his hand,
And draws him in.
Leading him forever
Into her desolate oblivion. [comments] => 3 [counter] => 167 [topic] => 49 [informant] => blackmarker [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 10 [ratings] => 2 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => mystical )

Skeleton Boy

There he is,
A lonesome skeleton boy.
Unfilled,
Worthless.
Aching,
With each beat
Of his exposed heart.
Sorrowed,
It lies,
Suspended within,
Floating beneath
Non-existent flesh.
Forced to endure
The stinging
Of the inconsolably cool wind,
Cutting,
Slicing through veins.
Simple,
Pure tears
Leak from dark,
Barren eye sockets.
Soft tendrils,
Spilling forth from below cobwebbed lids.
Beautifully they fall,
Dance,
Captivating.
Luring forth his acid princess.
Burning,
She takes his hand,
And draws him in.
Leading him forever
Into her desolate oblivion.

I see pieces of you inside of me.
Regardless, this piece is unconventional (specifically the genre in which I began to compose my poetry within), it is clear in regards to interpretation and rich in content.
Beneath this piece there is a thread of deeper emotions and concepts in which I am all too familiar with.
Anguish and the inablity to express it... although you have rather described your pains extraordinarily well.
I am in awe of your personification and underpinning ideals... the factors in which you disguise as inanimate objects... perhaps i am over looking.
This piece will be remembered.
