Red Ink

by AlexJ   Nov 25, 2005


Have you ever had the feeling?
Of a thousand voices screaming right at you
The memories, the nightmares just come rushing back to you
Sneaking up behind you

You find it dreary to subdue
You feel thereâ??s nothing you can do
So you surrender though the pain is haunting you

Red Ink, scribbled words on paper gives me peace
Red Ink, my screaming mind is now at ease
Red Ink, tears are streaming down my cheek
Red Ink, from the blood that had to leak

Have you ever had the feeling?
Of disgust pulsing furiously through your veins
Hating your own reflection cause thatâ??s not yourself you see

Tears have let you down
The only comfort you had left
Is blocked, is trapped, canâ??t let it out
Sadness surrounds you, but all thatâ??s left now is wrath and rage

Red Ink, scribbled words on paper gives me peace
Red Ink, my screaming mind is now at ease
Red Ink, tears are streaming down my cheek
Red Ink, from the blood that had to leak

    Amazing job. i love the way you use Red Ink in almost everything. It's kinda true also though this is very deep and soul feeding i would have to say because everyone uses "Red Ink" once in a while, once, keeps doing it. It can go on and on. maybe i don't make any sense but that's what i think keep it up. keep on writing love always and forever.
