Nightmare Serenity

Nightmare Serenity

A Poem by Demyra
"

A poem of mine from a fairly long time ago... I was actually so much more depressed then-I'm gonna try and avoid uploading too much of my old stuff.

"

Motherfuck living my life this way,
same old s**t, new f****n day.
Just another label, a date for the repitition,
burning through life's black retention.

Nightmare to, the monster within,
new light shine through, the monster of sin.
It pierces through, birthing new light,
casting another shadow to reiterate the same f****n plight.

A new hope brings new tears,
resolve just means more fears,
and I'm locked in this nightmare serenity.
And when I finally think it's over,
my heart starts beating slower,
and the dark flows back into me...

Motherfuck living from moment to moment,
wading in my peace,
to be shot through the heart and filled with lament.
I've been searching for release,

but...nothing changes.

Desperate for an end, I search for any exit in reach,
a thick fog of inner hate, far to thick to breach.
And I'm dying,
crying,
yearning,
burning,
to break free the painful constant,
a moment of bliss destroyed in an instant.
So f**k trying,guiding,
and lying,
f**k using this lie to guide myself.

A new hope brings new tears,
resolve just means new fears,
and I'm locked in this nightmare serenity.
And when I finally think it's over,
my heart starts growing colder,
and the pain seeps back into me.

I thought this poem was good! It was powerful. I think sometimes to get your point across you need to curse. I think it acturally added to your writing!

Too much cursing. I'm guilty of it too, but it's intentionally used to make things offensive in a funny way. The fact that "motherfuck" was the first word I read totally disrupted everything else about the poem.
