Tormented

Something I wrote describing my position in life metaphorically.

Sickened by the world once again
Tangled in the web of disgrace
Dabbling into thematic undertones
Witnessed within humble grace

Breaking through the solid grind
Notice the lonely illusions
Finding myself riding in the trend
Tearing through the seclusion

My head turns outside the wall
Taking in all what is bright
Away into my humble abode
Basking in what seems right

Could be the mystery that turns
Or the current might swallow
Screeching as the words trample
Blind hearts to meekly follow

Catching the rays of twilight dust
As the cycles swim on through
Basking in this caged-ridden day
Bathing sorrows in the blue

Masking around the devil’s bend
Acting out yet another scene
Tearless wings feeble in the fury
Moments dabbled with serene

Feelings get washed away forever
Needing to reel in once more
Tiredness enters blanketed states
Smashing into each other’s shore

And through the winds of change
Clockwork spinning every hour
Something seems so very deranged
Hanging petals to every flower

The way you lay this out for us...and the style in which you put forth your words on the front end and the rhyme scheme on the back end...an in depth type of feel...within the 8 stanzas...the story unfolds in each four lines...and tells an insight of a personal nature...and tone throughout this work...
