Agony

Burn, scald, scrape, destroy.

End it for good, end it tonight.

This thinking, it must stop now.

I'm haunted and tearing,

You can see my insides bursting forth.

I pain these words with my blood

As I fade into death slowly.

Don't you like watching me do this?

You're the one that brought it on,

Betrayed me to the fullest

And we pay for your crime, your sin.

Your own son can't take it,

It's an impossible weight to crush,

I'm pressed under your stones

Just like those of your faith did

To those who hurt them.

Enjoy this glass,

I'll toast with you

Upon finest red wine,

The deepest and best quality.

Human blood has no substitute,

Especially that of your family,

Your own blood.

Tip the glass,

Look into my eyes

And tell me your tale,

Show me your demons

So I can grin at them.

Watch me go tumbling

Unwilling but too weak to fight,

An undefended soul now claimed.

The Pyro's paradise,

I'll bleed day and night

While I remember these agonies

Til time ends.

I give my life at last,

I can't fight, I'm too weak.

Broken, destroyed.

Slashed, smashed.

Your sickness's product.

Are you happy now?

Watch now

As I do it,

This knife will work

Well enough.

Here is the cut,

Here are my insides,

Laid bare to the cold air

And here....

Here is my soul.

Some great lines in this one, but I got lost, which often happens if a poem is abstract. Rain..

I agree with Dean & Damian. This piece is raw and painful. Do hang on... and if you can't hang on, tie a knot and let it hold you until you can hang on.

Hang in there John. Striking piece...painful and torn. Hang in there.

I literally cried with this one.
It's hard my friend, it's hard to be strong when all else is failing.
Hold fast, dawn is coming.~P
