Temporary Injustice

by MShadowsWhisper   Mar 8, 2006


Searing hands upon my soul
Tears holding me together
Fears keeping a strangle hold
Mouth opening and closing
No sound left for screams.

Feeling hopeless
Like a drowning rat in a tub
Full of floating saltines
Fighting to live wishing to die
To exhausted to remember what either means.

    You reall have something here! i like the way your first stanza starts - the alliterations are good -

    Searing hands upon my soul
    Tears holding me together
    Fears keeping a strangle hold
    Mouth opening and closing
    No sound left for screams.

    the only line i thought was rather out of place in this great work is

    "Like a drowning rat in a tub"

    the ending is great too!

    good luck and peace - thanks for commenting on my work!

    love and luck
