Falling Victim To Looks Of DisgustA Poem by Jock Engelman
My tears pour over photographs of the past;
Memories that I now wish would fade fast; Encrypted deep within my dark mind; The thoughts I am attempting to pen down; Tears smudge the paper's black wounds running, oh Wow! My pain's noticeable in the inked words; Fingers clench the tool of my expression; Shaking violently due to agitation; Grinding my teeth, wishing to scream out aloud; Must regain control of my inner self; Before I fall victim to my mental health; And become another casualty to depression; I chose to believe that there's no use running; Cause yourself is all you'll end up loathing; I don't care about anything but the truth; Yet you stare at me with total disgust; I feel the truth will set you free, it must; That look burns in my mind, there is no escape; © 2012 Jock EngelmanAuthor's Note
