Cailen's Poem Archive - 11. The Attempt

I'm fine, just thinking back to a darker part of my life. thanks for all the love.

Falling into the dark oblivion, night blacker than poets dread

Pinpricks travel down my skin, knife glowing against the red

The rain falling from the sky, stinging against my tears

Washing away the pain struck down, of a thousand years

 

The flowing blackness rushes past and travels down my skin

I wonder if the same thoughts traveled, with my fellow kin

I look deep into the blackness past, and my soul release a cry

In all my pain and suffered life, at last I’m free to die

 

I feel my strength now leaving me, and I unclasp my hand

The blade striking against the ground sounds on porcelain sand

I close my eyes and settle in, the pain begins to seep

I await sweet deaths eternal, in the comforting arms of sleep

 

I open my eyes from a deep slumber, stinging in the light

The pain returns and my fists clench, struggling to fight

I look up into grey eyes tired; a hand over mine is sewn

I close my eyes and fall back asleep, knowing I’m not alone

That's different!

 

But yes, the hand that shows us that it's we're not alone is often enough! (or so methinks) :)
