[hometext] => This has been a very difficult year for me. Some of it my doing...but most of it not.
[bodytext] => Black blood weaving through chains of iron binding me to my despair The rotting floorboards that must support me the earth dank and treacherous Beware the thoughts that elate troubled walks through memory gardens A sideways glance that means nothing Impure love unrequited It emanates and illuminates the links tightening around my free will Cohesion no longer an option venom coursing through collapsed veins Phantoms shift and hide and laugh despair has become my redemption She took my hand and burned her breast smoke rising from charred flesh Tears of acid pour down the drain a cauterized heart indistinct A voice ringing with accusations justification will always be futile Screams for mercy from among the trees the bridge swings ever slowly What have we here...an impish grin emotion transfused with apathy Ankles lashed to fields of stone skyward I am falling Worries taint my nestled brow my crashing soul sounds the alarm Air and wind they bring me in vain the rust invading and inviting Visons of her and a voice of dread endings that will never begin Foretelling, foreboding, one and the same crimson clouds lined with ash The mundane has become extraordinary savoring the bile that sates me Darkened room glows with sweet corruption waves crashing on beaches of bone Black blood weaving through chains of iron binding me to my despair The chains of my despair [comments] => 4 [counter] => 527 [topic] => 75 [informant] => crow6279 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 18 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => anguished )
