Prisoner
Cauterized from reality
A vegetable growing in a graveyard garden
No one notices
No one fucking cares
Some memories are inseparable
From the fate twisted victims
Intoxicating fibers and vibrations
I can see the vacancy in your eyes
They reflect the trail of your demise
Systematic slaughter of feelings
Deathbed of demons
Lay waste in purgatory
Tell me how the fallen
Are the culprits in this madness
With nothing left to demonize
How are we to appreciate the angels
Fallen or otherwise
to carcass:
I like your writing, I really admire your willingness to embrace your darkness. It is something I personally have trouble facing in myself.
I'm not sure what this writing is about to you, but to me it reminds me of the downfall that comes from addiction/substance abuse. How beautiful souls can end up wasting away, becoming slaves to their drug.
It could also be about recovering from trauma, and being misunderstood or even unheard by society, and the suffering that results.
Nonetheless, this was very thought provoking. Thank you for sharing your work.
Peace and Love,

Thank you, I'm glad you enjoy. I actually have not read any of Dostoevsky's work. I've honestly never even heard the name before, do you think I'd like it?

he's a dead russian author. he was around during the nihilist movement in the 1800s and wrote a lot of books showing the human condition at it's darkest. he wrote to counter all the nihilist books that were coming out at the time by showing inner dialogue and struggle against self. i recommend reading his stuff, he's my favorite author
