ill leave this world behindA Poem by Ama May Cooper
Take me away from here
Set me free from this world Let it all vanish and slip from view Im too tired to fight in this war Just let me run away into the darkness Let me melt and fade like an ice cube in the hot sun The fragile attachment to this sordid place is fleeting I have no desire to cling on I want to be lost in the shadows of existence I want to spread my wings and escape this place The echos of suffering from a self destructive society I am deafened and blinded by the arrogance of their self contempt This body merely an unwelcome cage A haunting reminder of all that is human A race of collective navievity I throw down my armour and lay down my weapons On my knees I scream one last surrender One final hope for a respectable goodbye These wounds wont heal and I won't mend them These nightmares that torment the sanity of my dreams There is too much weight now placed on my shoulders I dont want to exist here I can't sum up the energy to act like I belong Cast me out into the realm of endless night Leave me be in my own simulated silence Let me just close my eyes and scream until there is nothing left Until the very agony in my heart is drowned out by my echo I detest this world with a passion of stardust I want to see it torched and burned within an inch of its life There is no compassion that could save me from this rage I am done for all its worth the spirits of my brain have won I will dance in there poison, I will drink it with no fear Anything. ...absolutely anything just take me away from here © 2013 Ama May Cooper |
