Abysmal Torture

Hands raised to the sky

Don't shoot

A ache in my side

Poison in my blood


I don't want this

I never did

But, alas

My fate is sealed


I abuse my own thoughts

Filling them with disgust

For myself

I'm hurt


I don't want to

But I hate what I am

I cry with hatred

My tears go unheard


Smoke filled,

burning eyes and soul

I wish

I want out


Sadness engulfing me

My own thoughts are torture

Anger is welcome

It distracts


Lashing out and gnawing teeth

Split tongue of a serpent

I love the chaos

But it destroys


Fire

Within me

Flaming ballerinas

Dancing around my head


Falling down in a deep dark hole

I can't get out

Is it possible?

It can't be


Climbing up from the depths of Hell

Pleading to the Heavens

Release my demons

Make me strong!


Am I strong enough?

I hope

This temporary eternal torture

It's too much


Breathe my air for me

Take this away

Beat my heart like a drum

Set me free


I only ask this one favour

I'm grateful for my life

But, release me from the ache

I can barely go on


The clichés is what I hate the most

People don't understand

They hurt me more

Just listen


Listen to my heartbeat

Litter my eyes with happiness

I long for the day

I am set free


Hold out a little longer

It's going to be okay

Another cliché is spoken

But it's true


Scars will never heal

But we live on

The wounded are all around us

Let us be aware


Don't let us suffer

Help us whenever you can

We still love

We still retain emotions


We are human

We should be loved

Love us for who we are

Unconditionally


Staring into the abyss

My happy place

There,

No one can hurt me.
