Insanity Glass Box

by Wings Of Flames   Jul 24, 2006


Clawing at the walls around,
This screaming I can't take,
The pitch of this screeching beast,
I feel is no mistake,

Bloody images flush my mind,
With my broken frame alight,
Flames eating away my flesh,
But only for tonight,

Her lethal hands hold my throat,
And clasp at every tear,
Squeezing the life from my voice,
Afraid I won't see clear,

Eclipse into the darkness,
I feel for the break,
Her sorrow I shall hold her close,
But her love and heart still fake,

Scattered leaves into the dawn,
I feel the door slam shut,
Slipping majestic streams of blood,
I believed and see my rut,

Now I'm the one to claw this time,
Upon the glassy case,
A madness I cannot feel through,
The sight of every face,

Watching every move I make,
Though they are always free,
Mechanical beasts upon the roof,
Your blind but I can see,

Reality is what I believe,
And is what you think you know,
I am the only one to see this beast,
Because reality shall never show.

    Woweee--- I'm getting more and more impressed with each poem I read. They're all so great. This was is probably one of my favorite so far. Loved it.

    One minor little thing though...

    Your blind but I can see,

    ...It should be "you're"

    Great job hun! Keep it up!
