Real [May 22, 2016]

A Poem by Dillan Courtright

Inside my sickening darkness

I am suffocating and heartless

Inside my maddening thoughts of you

It drives me from the truth

 

Inside my heart, you feel the dark

Inside the abyss, is where I lurk

If you give me trust, I’ll break your soul

Inside the dark, I sit upon my throne

 

You don’t believe me, you bring me trust

I told you once, I’ll tell you again

I’m just too dark, I cannot hide

It’s how I am, I cannot lie

 

Cause upon this throne, I lay to waste

All those who love, all those who care

If you get too close, you could be next

Don’t come near me, don’t try to test

 

You didn’t listen, and you got hurt

Now you lie dead, upon the floor

I told you twice, I can’t tell you again

Inside my darkness, I always sin

 

You cannot change, who I am

You cannot stop, a force of nature

Even now, as I sit upon my throne

I still want to tell you, how I feel

You were a lie, you were never real
