KILLING ME.

by Daphne Darling   Jun 16, 2004


The sun shines through,
Yet none touches it,
The bleak black within,
It all stays as dark as night,
Not seen from without,
No sun shines upon this,
It stays dark within,
A dark centre of hate,
Cannot I rid myself of it?
Cannot I shed light on it?
Must this dark spot be there?
Why cannot I escape this?
Must I have this in my heart?
Dark corners of hate clouding my vision,
GET OUT,
GO AWAY,
LEAVE ME ALONE,
I don’t need this,
Set it all free again,
The pain is welling up once again,
I cannot take much more of this,
Further I go into the black abyss,
No place to run,
No one to turn to,
Where to go?
When all the world has it back to you,
As it slowly rises up,
I slowly slip further away,
TAKE ME OUT,
LIFT ME UP,
SET ME FREE,
I am sinking under,
No more to return,
Please set me free from this,
I cannot survive much longer,
It is,
KILLING ME.

    The sun shines through,
    Yet none touches it,
    The bleak black within,
    It all stays as dark as night,
    Not seen from without,
    No sun shines upon this,
    It stays dark within,
    A dark centre of hate,

    That was a beautiful stanza. Very Very Sad! But so good. The whole poem was excellent! Keep up the great work. Get past these feelings your having! :(

    Love,
