Imaginary

A Poem by Doll

written in 2003 - just archiving

Broken glass is dripping from invisible walls
Leaving crimson strokes on white satin
Diving into the emptiness within
I see the floating light of unconsciousness

My dreams are given to sanity without reason
Lost within black papercuts of regret
Feeling the flawless skin ripped apart
Fear has been washed away by temptation

Nightmares are sprawled out on my canvas
Playing themselves over and over again
Threatening me to leave this dark place
Still fighting against the demons inside me

I'm losing grip on this fragile reality of loneliness
A carousel of thoughts is spinning there
Never ceasing to send me empty pictures
Flurrying silhouettes when I give in and die

such a sad lonely piece.........full of haunting images.

Nightmares are sprawled out on my canvas
Playing themselves over and over again
Threatening me to leave this dark place
Still fighting against the demons inside me

Depression can be such a frightening thing, and it seems this piece is talking of a
deep depression where escape seems impossible. Such a sad piece but well written.

when I read this piece I felt lonely, which is a good thing because I never usually get affected by poems. This is truly a very stirring piece of work

THE LOST ROSE

This piece is a very honest look at a time you either experience or thought about. I like the reflection of a period that we all have gone through. The fact that you can write about and write about so beautifully is a testment that you made it out and you made the readers sees such beauty in such a bad time. Great write.
