The Pain That Never Dies...
By Zhee
(this is a very old one ....)
Take a look and see
Deep into my hell,
Into the laughing face of madness
Into the sights you can't tell.
See the twisted faces
Of all my paper dolls,
Come and taste the rain -
The rain that never falls.
The light that fades away,
Shadows that won't reconcile,
Think you can tell the Satanic smirk
From that Mona Lisa smile?
Can't you hear the screams
Suffocating behind these walls?
Just stand and watch the blade
As the guillotine falls...
Come, hold down the puppet
Dancing inside my head,
It still won't stop moving
Though it's already dead.
Stand at the edge of the abyss
That stares at your face,
You can't stand the sight -
Yet I belong in this place...
Come and take a look
At what you can't close your eyes,
Come and feel the pain -
The pain that never dies....

excellent for an old piece. i'm not one that usually digs rhyme, but this held together and no stanza was what i'd call bad and some were what i'd call quite good
