just a bit of poetry kicking around my book.

alone in a sea of misery and hate
destined to a horrible fate

Could never see the emptiness in your soul
Until you stole mine, and replaced it with the darkness from your hole

It should have never happened that way
I should have locked up my heart and ran away

Mistakes were commited, loneliness submitted
Unaware of the fine print, advantage that was taken evident

Now i live alone in a world of hostile emotions
stripped of my armor, now i have no notion

Im going to be here forever, yet my mind says never
Ruts in the path i take are worn in like a well traveled road
condemned to a life of haunting self-aggression, i am bode
Hating this feeling like the slither of snakes across a bare concrete floor

The floor i now claim as my only companion
The rats seek flesh the way i seek compassion

But the rats always find a way to survive
Yet i have lost the will to drive

Its time to crash....oh its time to crash...

But fate wont let me extinguish my own flame
It would rather see myself to blame

Now i fall asleep on the floor i claim to own
until the sun comes up and evicts me from my home

Time to wander on aimlessly, a tumbleweed upon the salt flats
blown along with no motivation of my own
but a shade darker than black for my tone

Still i wander, holding the dagger of retribution in my soul
Where anything that tries to take root i kill in cold blood

the hurt always finds a way to come back again, through no power of my own

Always self-inflicted this damage to my core
always running blindly, with no knowledge of whats in store

An endless loop, so seamless, so quintessential
bright incandescence, opaque denial

Condemned to this loop, with no way to end


bye.
