A Sirens Song In Sweet Fog

a vent

The reflection of hate 

the pieces we leave behind scattered in someones mind 

wreaking havoc 

brought me to rapture 

but in my mind just collapsing my life is prolapsing 

the shards stuck in my skin the hateful reflections follow me daily 

wearing me down

 with the recollections

 and past self reflections

 of the imperfections all the things that i recon 

why everything  in my life is just a dressing to a new wound 

just another bleeding scar hemorrhaging pus

 my shadow seeping corruption

 look my at my shadow left there

 leaving me alone 

crawling in the crevices creeping onto people finding new places to call home

 gathering my shadows and hone them like a knife cutting myself deeply 

is this  my life ? 

the only life i have left ? 

dragging this knife across my skin letting the pus seep onto the blade 

seeping into the pores and gaps in the shade 

filling it with new purpose

 to blind me from the pain

 i know i am facing 

but i can't open my eyes 

i can't open my eyes

 they are crusted shut as they shall stay 

i am disconnected 

so disconnected

and unraveled the threads are leaving me

 sticking to things 

pulling them into me 

piercing my flesh 

and stealing my ember of warmth 

siphoning my shadow veil 

no where to hide

 the truths are following me 

i can't bury my head anymore

 in this flesh filled sack 

all these lies i tell myself to stay alive

 but for what for i am living 

with all this pain and without purpose

 truly a life in vain 

dragging myself around this glass field of broken mirrors the sweet phantasms caress my soul 

a sirens song in sweet fog..

I found this extremely powerful, I haven't read anything like it for a long time. The imagery is insane, I really liked it.

Sorry about the things happening in your life... Still, this is a beautiful work of art that conveys how the past can torment us in the future, creating new wounds. Good job...!

Thank you for saying this it makes things easier when you feel someone trying to empathize with you it is not easy for me to comment on thoughts like this it is to close to me but i appreciate the things you said so i will just say that.
