Regrets and failures consume me alive

A labyrinth of thoughts assemble the pieces
As the ink is bled from the skin that ceases

A ghost ship sailing without a destination
Like tides that leave me all alone in isolation

Currupted lungs do not allow me to breathe
Suffocating what is already dead, within me

The shadow reflects
The absence of my being
For the sun does not light the ground
And my life has only left me
. . .
Dead to the world around

Dead To The World Around

Grieving memories sedate my mind
Regrets and failures consume me alive

A labyrinth of thoughts assemble the pieces
As the ink is bled from the skin that ceases

A ghost ship sailing without a destination
Like tides that leave me all alone in isolation

Currupted lungs do not allow me to breathe
Suffocating what is already dead, within me

The shadow reflects
The absence of my being
For the sun does not light the ground
And my life has only left me
. . .
Dead to the world around

ah, brilliance came from the pen the night you wrote this. this better get double digit comments. the best aspect of this would be the substance most definantly. from the first line to the last, it was an enjoyment to read.

Hmm how odd how come such a great poem lacks a comment?

Anyways i thought this was perfect. I've got nothing more to add than just by saying this poem is perfection.

Hugs,

A very sombre piece here Clark...I love that second stanza. Well conveyed emotions. The flow stumbled a bit here and there, but overall the poem was good.
