I sit there, in regret of all the things I’ve done
I sat there with thoughts of disappointment
I will forever sit there.

My switchblade lies beside me. Quietly glistening
It lies there, with the blood of a pessimist afresh
It lied there, weathered with life long decayed
It will forever lie there.

My pen rests alongside me, in its tranquil plasticity
It rests there; its ink flowed of my indiscretions
It rested there, aware of the repercussions to follow
It will forever rest there.

My soul absconds its lifeless environment
It drifts in the wings, loyal to its possessor
It drifted there, tormented and diseased
It will forever drift there.

Society continues. Forever ignorant of my demise.
It continues, sheathing the conservative majority
It continued, masking issues like a crumbling façade
It will forever continue.

Deceptive Continuity

Contributed by emphaticplacebo on Monday, 9th February 2004 @ 10:43:13 AM in AEST
Topic: Suicide

I sit in the dark. Silent and pondering silently
I sit there, in regret of all the things I’ve done
I sat there with thoughts of disappointment
I will forever sit there.

My switchblade lies beside me. Quietly glistening
It lies there, with the blood of a pessimist afresh
It lied there, weathered with life long decayed
It will forever lie there.

My pen rests alongside me, in its tranquil plasticity
It rests there; its ink flowed of my indiscretions
It rested there, aware of the repercussions to follow
It will forever rest there.

My soul absconds its lifeless environment
It drifts in the wings, loyal to its possessor
It drifted there, tormented and diseased
It will forever drift there.

Society continues. Forever ignorant of my demise.
It continues, sheathing the conservative majority
It continued, masking issues like a crumbling façade
It will forever continue.

Dude all I can say is that this poem was
amazing and after about the 6th line I was left
in complete awe. This was wonderfully
written I hope that you will be back soon
since you are the master of dark poetry.
