The Reaper

The Reaper

A Poem by Anna Marie

Real or not it feels so true
It seems there is nothing i can do
Around me all I see are eyes
Eyes that burn right through
Explain! Explain! they scream
Inside this feeling seeps through and through
The agony radiates, reaping it gains
From the blood that pumps through my veins
The words i sob never reach their ears
The reaper intercedes as he races through
Within him he imprisons their understanding
My stomach pulses and aches, my mind a twister
I cant escape, the never ending storm, I break
It cycles in me with complete control
Happy I may be, but no sooner it will leave
It then it brings me to my knees
The blood from this fall never will it leave my flesh
It only lingers within the heart in my chest
A heavy burden I must forever hold
Concealed it remains from those others that shame
Their eyes cannot see for inside the pain remains
No bruise to satisfy their wonder
No Blood to drip at their feet and complete whats been said of me
Inside me is this leech that lives off what is weak
Forever it roams, down inside me it clones
All that’s left is goodbye, and all you see is a lie.
