Agony

Dear Agony, please let go of me.

Plunging into my own deep despair,

Head beneath the water.

I lay breathless, dwelling in the dark

Suffocating in neverending loneliness.

 

Red ink bounds words to my heart

As I try to write away all this agony.

I have written endless letters in any attempt

To move on without you by my side.

 

Vicious images cut through thoughts,

Holding my ears to drown out the screams.

Carry me to gates of heaven

Where you whisper softly in the moonlight.

 

Bring me back to the days of light,

When this house once felt like home.

Finding closure is like finding a needle in a haystack... very powerfully descriptive.

great lines.

I like the description and the desire of the poem. Would be nice to find the places of peace and happiness again.
"I have written endless letters in any attempt
To move on without you by my side. "
A strong ending to the excellent poem.

A piece I really enjoyed! Amazing actually.
"Red ink bounds words to my heart
As I try to write away all this agony."

Those lines mean so much, the ink the color of your heart. So no matter how many words you write, it seems agony will not release its hold. Thanks for sharing!

I concur with Dr. Wood. Other than that, this was a great read, lots of emotion and pain tied up in it. Thanks hun
