Array ( [sid] => 48662 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => When all the world is left to hate [time] => 2004-05-22 13:09:46 [hometext] => Whatever..... [bodytext] => I've grown so tired of this place.
Can't seem to meet my own eyes.
Despair sucks me dry of life.
All I want is my solitude.

When did I become despondent inside?
How did I lose touch with myself?
I don't seem real while I'm dying
and the knife brings no pain to me.

I can't find the hiding tears.
And everyone sees the same thing
no matter how much my soul screams.
No one can see the hole inside.

Sex won't close the hole.
Drugs won't numb it away.
Alcohol won't drown it out.
Nothing heals the pain I feel.

I'm left staring down the barrel of a loaded forty-five
trying to figure out why I"m still alive.
There must be something wrong with the world today.
Become so numb inside those around me speak in silence.

I never asked that it come to this
Deprived of what I can't have
But the twisted world won't let me in
Nothing I do changes a thing

and when we die life goes on
it doesn't stop nor pause
so all my strength is for naught
life is bleaker than i was taught

you cant carry someone further than they allow
and they must walk through the door themself
ive never seen heaven though i dwell in hell
still i ask when i became this shell

maybe others are right
that i cant carry the world
that i do need love
but all that is so beyond me

MY LIFE IS PAIN
my existence is nothing
i dont need salvation
i want this damnation

if i could turn back time
it would be all the same
so leave me to myself
ill smile again from my bleeding throat [comments] => 11 [counter] => 255 [topic] => 13 [informant] => Black13 [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 15 [ratings] => 4 [editpoem] => 0 [associated] => [topicname] => DarkPoetry )

awww... Jeff, this is SO sad... hang in there.
Life is worth living, it really is. suicide nor solitude is the answer.

So much despair here. You're causing me to bite my lip. Do you know that I feel your pain? You said that in one of the things you wrote about feeling the pain of others, and I could identify completely. So there, I don't just try to help to please God.

Love the poem and the message behind it is very true. That's sometimes what all this world feels like is pure hatred... I'd love to hear more of your work.

Hang in there, old chap! Things are always darkest before some sort of dawn comes. That's no mere cliché - every time I've gotten any better or stronger as a person, or gotten any better gift in life, it's been after a time of desperation and darkness.

Love it. Part of the reason I dislike you, Jeff, is because the dark parts of you are such an echo of the dark parts of myself. And I can't stand to see it in myself, much less someone else. I'm sure you probably know exactly what I mean, so I'll leave it at that.

several lines really stood out, but to cut and paste them would take away from the whole. as a whole, it was a damn good piece. sorrow oozing like slow blood. and despite not wanting to pick lines, i have to say that the last line was ***** sweet. anyway, it's good and you know it so i'm done.
