Emotional SuicideA Poem by Ed PiersHead filled with memories From undying vessel of emotions Thoughts spring out Surrounded by the aching voice The spotlights of shattered soul In the room filled with broken dreams Dreams that were once bright Full of hope and bliss A source of motivation and drive Now lay on the ground Far from its former glory Body that seeks strength Soul that seeks immortality Voice that gives up the truth The truth that lies Beyond those papers Lifted up like dreams Dark as shadow in an endless night For once it seemed so true Easy to grasp with a simple mind Haven't been looking beyond its surface Been blinded by the light it shines Been felt to be soaring in the sky Been thought to be on the zenith Never looked down Never looked inside Never touched its surface Never thought of anything else In the abyss of drunkenness The one who gives speech Is the one who's easily taken away Until everything dropped Everything back to its places The place I once been The thing I once believed The dreams I once pursued The life I once held dear I woke up thinking one day I would stop dreaming Never thought it would kill me It would kill me so bitterly I never said that I never lied but I never said everything was a lie So it is you who would ask The farther this would go The further you can't bear Those truths may seem true But the truth is a lie And lies are true Just cut the thread and take this heart So I won't feel any pain Keep me insensitive Keep me heartless Keep me away from tears Keep me from happiness Keep me from any emotion Thinking that I would fall in love Gives me shiver Gives me sting Gives me the unforgettable feeling Of being hurt Of being alone Of being so insecure So I bury my heart in my memories And hope it rest in peace
