Grim Reaper Realities

Darkness in my mind

Low murmurs of hopelessness, pulling and eroding tides of dark oceans

In my mind; the seas are so polluted with nightmare poisons, throwaway thoughtcrimes,

Holy Divers die in the abyss of murdered dreams, this is the land of

Lost things, come in, just leave

Yourself outside.

 

 

Abandoned lyrics tangled in bone-fragile hopes, they scream out

For salvation, like forsaken infants,

Left to rot and thrown to the wolves of starving personas;

Amputated alter-egos.

 

 

Empty, hollow heartbeats echoed in cavernous chambers,

Cold lips on reaper-dry necks, all bloodless, star-white lacerations,

Fallen ruins of sanity, enter my guardian angel, heaven's zombie draped in

Tattered bits of my skin, wings beat with relentless monotony, welcome to

Hell and all that inhabit it.

 

 

Don't look to the light at the start of the tunnel, just clamber forwards,

Join the fallen in our dungeon realities.

Whew... sigh... this is dark. Not in a childish way, but in a sort of realism without hope.
Thankfully, moments may seem like eternity but the future is not written and a dungeon of reality can be escaped. One need not have joy to find hope. One need not see the light to believe it is somewhere traveling with vast energy and speed. Still, our souls feel how long a light year is when the light is a year or two away...
Loved the write Kat.
One thing I thought as I read this. I have never been able to go anywhere even in my mind and leave myself outside... I think this is a good skill to leave undeveloped. ;)

Much love dear poet.

Another chilling piece of fantastic imagery. Food for thought to be sure, and an instant favorite. "come in, just leave Yourself outside." is most definitely my favorite line in this one. It is reminds me a bit of "Hotel California". "You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave." If you leave yourself outside is there any hope of ever leaving? Doubtful.
