I’m so tired of living on the edge of a breakdown this house is not a home ‘cause I’m never alone I never know who might open the door I’m a prisoner of war and of my very own lore I’m grasping at straws the rotting corpses of all that was I’m clinging so tight to anything I can make just right eating, breathing self-control **** my tarnished heart and soul skin and bones are all I need they’re the only parts of me anybody can see this body’s no temple just an accidental dirty rental so lock all of the doors ‘cause we’re going to war and we’re **** keeping score never a blank slate the numbers slowly accumulate I sink my teeth in but the image you see is deceiving only my eyes know the truth apparitions of my youth running fingers over curves dig my nails in ‘cause I **** hate this war of nerves there’s no sanctuary from this adversary I can’t bury choking on poison please don’t let the noise in this pain I’m not voicing [comments] => 2 [counter] => 115 [topic] => 61 [informant] => MoonlitAngel [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => selfstruggles )

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
