Wounded Ink

by Strange Angel   May 16, 2006


Grasp the page with a bloodied hand
Is it your own,
Or is it theirs?
Can you even tell anymore?

Wounded ink spills teary lies
Forming words under the pain.
Struggle with your consciousness
Grasping for the lost sense of reality
Scars that mark the nostalgic trail
Blazing under pressure.
Lost in a maze of madness and lies
Mislaid sanity not yours but someone else's
Fragile as the broken shards of your life
Fall for it, fight for it; the freedom to be free
You know you want it
You know you lost it
But is it your own
Or is it theirs?
