PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

Lost in the darkness in the dungeon of life

The winds of indecision have extinguished all light

The laughter of Hopelessness cackles down the corridor

And the shackles of regret have pinned me to the floor

The dried and empty carcass that once embodied my dreams

Decomposes in my arms in a frozen, silent scream

The constant drip of sorrow burns into my broken mind

Drowning out the wish that's always been denied

That I'll be free to leave the past behind

I'll be free to unlock the door of time

Where image has no meaning and money is no concern

No bridges left to cross, no memories left to burn

In am lonely - "Baloney"

I need love - "Ha, but your ugly"

Hold my hand - "Your hands are empty"

I want to die - "Please make it hasty"

Some glitter through the darkness, a glimmer of hope?

A chance to wrap my hands around the end of my rope

I see my smiling face through all the mistakes I've made

Reflecting off the chrome of a bloody razor blade

Now, I am free to break the chains that bind

I am free to leave all space and time

Now image has no meaning and money is no concern

No imposing mountains, no bridges left to burn...
