The Wound of PleasureA Poem by Ed PiersI've been stuck and yet I have to find my way out. Been travelling across north and south. But all of the places seems haunted Seconds, hours and days is tormented. Once I was enthralled by this magical disaster But now I find myself to worry thereafter So lost among the sea of worries and anxiety But to whom I shall lament to, to thee? Been rocking in the same place every night I never heard my screaming voice in fright Have been afraid for all of my life Sick of this song, give me a knife The sound of the ruthless heartbeat Pushed me to the end of the cliff The sound of the rushing heartbeat Pushed me to the edge and stiff Then let myself drift and wander Hand in hand, we pulled ourselves together Drowned in the sea of sheets Pushed it in until it reaches the limit In the warmth of each other we feel Insensitive, as we make our way to the peak A night full of carnal desire The wandering soul and shattered mind When body dwells this two has been bind The eagerness of that dreadful situation Has been reached the maiden drowning in conclusion That it's something you can control, just mind While others tell of the consequences Yet you let yourself be in that chain of mess A moment of pleasure traded for a risk in pain Emotional and physical, acting in vain After those moments of pain and pleasure There's something that the soul cannot endure It may be a pleasure in banker's time But the scar it left may last a lifetime
