Description
We were having fun together
but all good things must come to an end
I leave and enter my domain
Once again I am faced
with the demons I left behind
"Unfinished business" is written
over everything I touch
Desperation envelops me
but I remain calm.
On the brink of madness
I manage to hold onto false sanity
I lure myself yet again
into the depths of my darkness
Day by day it consumes me
and I sink lower still
Success seems so far now
as if I stand at the bottom of a well
A well with no rope to climb
but with murky waters promising my ruin
It rises
and my freedom will soon die again
Golden rays of hope touch my face
but I cannot reach them
The song of this saintly siren
falls upon a deaf man's door
Please
let your energy course through me
Let it make me rise
and escape this ever-deepening tomb
Make me hear your song
and make me change
Let the future be bright again
and let me be free

hmm... i sound like me from a long, long time ago... i wish renderosity allowed for more than 1 posts because i feel more inside me wanting to be said. perhaps tomorrow. it will be bedtime soon.
as sung by Emma Shapplin, i should "forget or live no longer" ... "or, then, only the night, the night, the night!"
though in my case "change" is probably a better word than "forget"

by the way, any poems i post are written either on that same day or at the time of posting, like this one. i just don't like littering my work with dates. that's what hard copies and "Creation Date" are for.
"The song of this saintly siren falls upon a deaf man's door" That sounds really good, so melancholic and contradicting that it actually makes sense.
Yeah.. I hope you feel better. I could always pull you up back to the light ;)
