Dungeons of depression

Dungeons of depression

A Poem by Fréyjä Helvití

I see fire flaming with a scorch of scarlet red,

Unlike no other flames that conjures the horrid dread.

A burning for so long that I wish I had control,

Of eternal dreams and madness forever left untold.

 

These chains that cackles in dungeons of abyss,

The stench of rusted metal to hold the caress,

Now forged within me, beneath my skin so sore,

A memory of a lonely child, bathed in gore.

 

The lonely child in me, that remained in a memory,

Wrote down death in the heart of a diary,

Nor did she wish to remember, nor could she ever forget,

How the mistake of her mother made her regret.

Thank you...
this is so true in many ways death comes in more than one form and children dream of death when pain arrises when one grows in suffering the child within them is often forgotten

Indeed... That is why some children feel like an outcast, rejected, unwanted...

I really liked the feel of this one. It's like wandering through a familiar place. A place you never wanted to be familiar with. Great job.

Thank you so much... I wrote this when I was terribly misunderstood by my mom...
shackles or cackles:"to utter a shrill, broken sound or cry, as of a hen.
2.
to laugh in a shrill, broken manner.
3.
to chatter noisily; prattle."
