Array ( [sid] => 90546 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => Steel Saviour [time] => 2005-04-10 20:27:47 [hometext] => * This came to me as I was walking peaceably around a book store. * [bodytext] => Stare out of depression dimmed eyes
At your distorted reflection
In the bloodstained water
Ponder the lack of meaning in your life
As you weep your endless, liquid misery
Cupping the blood that pools in your hands
And sipping it like holy communion
Wiping your bloodstained hands on anything in reach

A fake smile pasted on your pretty face
As you kiss your steel Saviour
Amidst the screaming shadows that torment
Bleeding lacerations that only permit
More demons to assault your tortured mind
Increased inability to function
Your scars a terrible reminder
As you pull further within yourself

Cherish the memories when scars
Did not imprison your soul
Numb to feeling as you bleedout
Sprinting into Death's decaying arms
You begin to weep soundlessly
As you realize you have been deceived
By your steel Saviour

Absolutely flawless, my friend!!! Dripping with delicious morbidity, a scrumptiously dark read, cheri Bobo. Exquisite imagery, impeccable depth, just... utterly astounding. Your talent blinds me through this dark masterpiece. It's as if you have painted a picture of death and suicide, the tempter and temptress of everyone's dreams, right in front of my eyes... A somber requiem to the heart and mind... Hauntingly beautiful, bobo. Thank you for this marvellous work of art. All my love. Forever,

Your friend/fan,

Stephy.

This one gave me goosebumps. You know how to remove all the barriers and pen in a way that has no comparison. You move the reader with every emotion and your style captures the imagination on every level.

I'm impressed and I think you did an awesome job composing this poem.

It is incredible.

The power of this piece is truly amazing. Everything about this feels in place, from the title and author's note through to the last words. A surpassing job, my friend. Most moving.
