Venomous Intoxication

Venomous Intoxication

A Poem by Demyra
"

The story of a life well exhausted...

"

I'm dreaming of tomorrow,

I'm dreaming of a better yesterday.

My regrets lead me into sorrow,

but it hardly matters anyway...

 

Elegant words paint pretty pictures of grotesque mutilations,

and my morbid mortality is sustained by these twisted devestations...

 

I don't want this present,

and I'm afraid of the future,

all it takes is a moment,

and then I lose her...

 

Venomous Intoxication lies in every pulsating fiber of me,

my blood, memories, failure, and the truth I choose to see.

I realize everyday that I'm everything I never wanted to be...

Sordid little indescretions seep into my soul,

pitch black thoughts of hate threaten to consume me whole.

When everyday is but a miserable compilation of regrets,

you f*****g tell me that misery isn't what life begets....

 

I don't want this present,

because the future can't fuse it.

all it takes is a moment,

and I swear I'll f*****g lose it.

One false move and everyone dies,

One pure intention and everyone cries.

I don't want this present,

and I'm afraid of the future,

all it takes is a moment,

and then I lose her...

 

Am I allowed to cry,

Am I allowed to die?

you say there'll be better days,

but I think that's a lie.

 

Elegant words paint pretty pictures of grotesque mutilations,

and my morbid mortality is sustained by these twisted devestations...

 

I'm dreaming of tomorrow,

I'm dreaming of a better yesterday.

My regrets lead me into sorrow,

but it hardly matters anyway...

Beautiful. The emotional response was immaculate. It was perfect. The message was superb. I wouldn't touch anything on it except maybe a word here or there, but that doesn't matter. This was an amazingly written piece. I liked it a lot. It drew me in and tied me up. I couldn't help but finish it. Very very well crafted. I hope to see more like this out of you.
