Bleeding Within

By Liquid_Chaos87

Take another piece of me
And take another slice,
But how much longer
Until I pay the ultimate price?

My mind is more than weary
My body completely numb.
I even look into the mirror
Only to see what I’ve become.

I look to the stars to find myself
As something inside of me dies.
I look for clues under my soul
With endless cries, I hear no replies.

My anticipation has died underneath
And my hollow soul crumbles down.
I feel the blame, the fingers point
Suffocating inside and left to drown.

The profound pain too much to bear
With my conscience never being clear.
Dripping with sorrow, I’m torn within
Releasing the anguish with every fear.

Scattered tears relentlessly fall
With nothing left to bleed inside.
I look to the stars one more time
But behind the clouds they hide.

    A great first post, not many images are more sorrowful and hopeless than looking to the stars only to find nothing. The pain seeped in between every word. Thanks for sharing, write on. Scholar
