Embracing Hells fury

Just the feel of numbness....

I'm high with darkness,
tried a lot of times to escape this madness,
"but now no more,
I will let it slide,
I don't care if it's heaven or hell
I don't have any reasons to feel this time,"
some folks like to get away,
but they will only find shades of grey,
not a single hope of joy...
"so why all this?"
it was so easy living day by day
until that big cloud came
and took it all away....
now I feel nothing,
I am stuck with numbness
Hell found me when I was somebody
now I just want to look at the view
and not to find the truth,
in a world where a drop of hope never exists

Author's Note

A dark and abstract approach...with this song it makes it even....(I'll let you feel in the blanks)

Well Nick your poem does what it says on the tin. You have portrayed that feeling of numbness so very well in this piece.

You have a good concept but I can't help but feel like you've dealt with it a little heavy-handedly. There's a lot of really subtle things you could have done here, but the overall effect of this sort of dark and edgy stuff you're putting out is a little sophomoric and it makes this difficult to take seriously.

Thanks for review, I appreciate it...

The last line completes this piece perfectly and I really like how you open this poem, too. The "darkness" surely keeps this poem afloat and it really comes across to me, as the reader.
