[hometext] => Morbid poem....ENJOY :)
[bodytext] => Alas! My tears I cannot shed-- my soul, with blood, I fiercely bled;
Steadily flowing drops of red-- no emotion found herein. So forever I shall remain fully conscious and half insane Listening to the beating rain demanding to be let in. Pounding against my windowpane demanding to be let in-- Mirroring my tears within. With glass-like eyes I lie in bed, though motionless, I'm not quite dead For there is movement in my head just none where my heart had been. This destiny is inhumane-- residing in a different plane Where neither good nor evil reign; where no one can ever win-- A fate, worse then I can explain, where no one can ever win; A place that lacks Time within. I lost it all pushing ahead and am confined where people dread. Where I am is best left unsaid for reward comes not by sin. My determination was plain; I took the razor, slit my vein, But the only thing I did gain was the slash across my skin. I watched the growing crimson stain from the slash across my skin Bleed out all the warmth within. I had let myself be misled-- eagerly listening when they said, "Life does not end with Death, instead, Death harbors new life therein." I longed for that chance to regain dreams which were prematurely slain. The world was right, I shall refrain 'Death is a place to begin'. So let my epitaph contain, "Death is a place to begin... I found more pain here within."
