Welcome to agonies lair
Come hang your senses by the door
Come inside and be my guest

See that guy in the corner
Always blue, forever mourner
Lived his whole life in misery
Broken and beaten since he was three

See the boy with the broken crown
watch him cower, cry and frown
Bullied and tortured in his school
Yet hes the one made the fool

See the girl with bruised fists
The red ring around her wrists
Noone seems to understand her
Only will in the funeral parlour

See that lady in the red
Saw her family all shot dead
Now she sits all day alone
Yet still waits by the telephone

See the woman who was violated
She shouldn't be the one hated
Now too scared to see the sky
Just sits inside and rather cry

Welcome to the house of despair
Everyone ignores, noone cares
All walk past, get on with lives
As I start passing out the knives

House of Despair

Welcome to the house of despair
Welcome to agonies lair
Come hang your senses by the door
Come inside and be my guest

See that guy in the corner
Always blue, forever mourner
Lived his whole life in misery
Broken and beaten since he was three

See the boy with the broken crown
watch him cower, cry and frown
Bullied and tortured in his school
Yet hes the one made the fool

See the girl with bruised fists
The red ring around her wrists
Noone seems to understand her
Only will in the funeral parlour

See that lady in the red
Saw her family all shot dead
Now she sits all day alone
Yet still waits by the telephone

See the woman who was violated
She shouldn't be the one hated
Now too scared to see the sky
Just sits inside and rather cry

Welcome to the house of despair
Everyone ignores, noone cares
All walk past, get on with lives
As I start passing out the knives

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. ©
