The End

by XxLastHopexX   Jul 21, 2009


My body can no longer hold such pain
Endure such suffering
I cry,
The depths of my soul erupt from within
No longer confined by my strength

I reach just beyond my grasp
a paradise of strength and endurance
I struggle to keep my outer appearance
of indifference,
of bliss

I'm hanging by a thread
a thread that threatens to break
with each step I take
My growing fears continue

I'm trying to get through this
For the worse is yet to come

I'm trying to pretend it's OK
but my fictitious tales aren't fooling me

I'm trying to get back up.
Trying to win this fight
Trying to be strong.

But, my resolve is going fast,
My heath deteriorating
Unlike all I've felt before

The pain is fatal
I'm not sure if I'll make it.
My soul can no longer endure,
Can no longer hold
The pain that I feel
The pain that I have long suffered.
Now I'm slipping far, far away....
I'm going....
I'm going....
I'm gone....

    Whoa....this was intense stuff hun. I'm with Shaun, the last stanza was my favorite as well. This has to be your best work..no doubt. Your words were hard hitting and painted a very sad picture in my mind. Such an emotional piece. I loved it. Brillant work deary. Nik

  • Awwh I love this poem, can relate to it soo well too..

    Particularly love the format of the last stanza, and love the lines

    "The pain that I feel
    The pain that I have long suffered.
    Now I'm slipping far, far away....
    I'm going....
    I'm going....
    I'm gone.... "

    It's beautiful imagery, like your disappearing in the distance. I really love it =] Keep writing!! 5/5
