Array ( [sid] => 32231 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Eternal Slumber [time] => 2004-01-20 17:49:57 [hometext] => I do not think many people will understand this... [bodytext] => Tears coaxing my face creating a disguise
This guise engulfs me, my soul hath forsaken me
This lie is what remains, waylayed and torn
Besieged by lies, I search in vain for truth
I seeketh you, the truth among falsehood!
No longer can I bear this deceit!
Show yourself! So that I no longer need to hide
Abiding in nothing, there is no hope left for me
No escape for me to ease my passing
The world endures this havoc I reek upon it
It endures forever, reaping what I sow
There is nothing left to rift or destroy
Nature tantalizing me with each new fade of grey
The fault is mine! Nature's colors have run dry!
Trees bear no fruit, it's branches laden with acid rain
They once were my tears
As all the years of my youth are utterly spent
Yearning for days that hath long gone away
Crimson slowly seepeth through this colorless dust
Nature draws for me it's final breath
Life is now a barren field, as all life fades away
Frozen from the coldness of my heart
Forsaken here in this dissevered lie
Mourning in vain for needless acts of shame
The lies slip out of death that it hath wrought
Soothing my mind with what will never become
These lies fill the empty spaces within my heart
That shame hath eaten away
As the pain subsides
I try to wake from this nightmare until I soon realize
I cannot arouse myself from this eternal slumber
Now all that I hath seen or deemed
Is but a dream within a dream

Your poem has a nice flow and I enjoyed reading. I am not totally for sure what it is about 100 percent but it was beautifully written.
