Array ( [sid] => 155645 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => So Be It. [time] => 2009-12-05 17:32:59 [hometext] => [bodytext] => In the coldest part of the night you sent goosebumps down my spine
A chill that ran through me like a hungry terror
I wanted to wake and shake the thoughts of you out of my head
Cleanse my spirit from the seizure of your filth and rot
-helpless-

You want me because you want me to be yours
You want me to belong to you
Your quivering breath so close to my face
It burns to know that all I ever was to you was yours
-helpless-

I unwrap the memories with a tinge of swallowed fear
All my wishes and dreams sinking to the bottom of a deflated soul
Can I muster up enough courage?
Enough false security to remember?
Remember you
-helpless-

Here I am, again, and again...
Choking down the life we knew together
Belonging to you in my uniform of sacrafice
Your screams echoing down the hall
A slew of profanities at my existence
The question of your whereabouts was not for my inquiry
-helpless-

All I wanted
All I wanted
Sinking to the bottom of my deflated soul
Beyond a meager grasp, more than just out of reach
-helpless-

You wanted me
I wanted to be loved
All I ever was to you was yours
And all I ever wanted is gone
Sunken below the depths of a deflated and shattered soul
All my hopes, dreams, desires, plundered by you
You reckless coward
-I won't be helpless-

Your breath on me like acid, hot and fiery
"You're mine" you said.
"I won't let you go" you whisper in a devil's tongue
I'm clawing at the mask of this monster before me
Fury raging towards your being
I'm on my way out, to escape you
Nails dragging down your skin
"I won't let you go" captor's voice echoing
-I won't be helpless-

Screams tearing out of my lungs
Jumping up my throat in angst
I wake
The attempt to shake you out of my head is futile
Hot fury inflating the helpless soul
Beads of sweat on the sheets
All the dreaded memories hitting the floor
drip drip drip
My way out
-I won't be helpless-

If I have to battle you every night
Let the fury kick in the door every morning
Just to get out, to be free of you
I will wake and attempt to shake you out of my head, again and again!
Reach down deep into my soul, to the most barren and intimate chambers
And grip you with a raging vengeance, pull you up from the roots

THEN SO BE IT
-I will not be helpless-

Wow, this really is awesome!
You've clutched my heart in the grasp of your hand, and tugged it hard with this one.
Truly amazing honey, well done x

It burns in your gut when you feel helpless. I've been here. It's dreadful and anger inspiring.Nice to see someone feels the way you do.
