Farther AwayA Poem by RachelReaperFarther Away When it holds you, It feels like a Security blanket, But it's much too cold. When you hold it, It feels like something Stable for once, But it shatters Much too easily. You cling to it Out of desperation, Because nothing else Would have you, But the truth? It won't have you, either. It doesn't feel. It doesn't care. It never has.
You could once Conjure it, Will it towards you To wrap around Your bleeding lips, Your screaming heart, Or whatever was left. But it was Much too translucent For you to ever control.
A glass castle Quivering on a fault, But it's your fault, You summoned it here. You didn't know, But that's irrelevant. You haven't the slightest Clue the damage you've Dealt in. It doesn't want you, It's after you. It won't help you, It devours you. It cannot love you. It can only destroy.
You think you're being Picked up, As you lay dying, Your tears wiped away, You don't understand. It's tossing you into The same abysmal void It tosses every victim. Sounding as sweet As your most pleasant dream, It whispers to you, Only to rip into you later In its own sadistic game. It's taking a form now, A distinctive shape. I know, I see it, too. It's becoming quite clear To me now, And to you,
Everyone has their demons, But are yours close Enough to Touch? © 2013 RachelReaperAuthor's Note
