Screams in the Dark
By MirrorEye
A razor blade upon the floor.
blood upon my wrists.
i think
of life and death and hell.
alone in a graveyard, i scream to the
dark.
Screams of hatred and fury
of confusion and pain.
i remember a time when everything was alright.
Pain and suffering
where just myths.
I used to be happy.
but it was not meant
to last.
The cruel hands of fate snatched my
entire purpose of
existence and tore it apart.
The blood of countless millions
burned into
my soul of hatred. the devil makes work for idle hands.
my hands. there was once a time when i could love.
but nothing lasts
forever. Once a girl said she cared for me.
but you left me in the
gutter for someone else.
I jolt back into reality as screams
pierce the dark.
screams that flow from my mouth.
As i lay on
the grave of my mother
i trace the cuts of my damaged skin. Hatred
fills my soul of black and pours into the
icy caverns of my heart.
Before i stop it, a fist lashes out and
cracks open the resting
place of my mothers bones.
Realizing what i've done, i break into
tears,
hoping to die. I trace the ground, looking for a weapon to
end my life with.
My fingers brush against the sharp edge of
a neglected razor blade and i know what i need to do.
My heart pounds
in my throat as i think of all
the pain i caused. The people i pushed
away. The lives that have been lost.
The last kiss i shall ever
have is that of cold steel against my throat.
the last embrace shall
be death's. And as i draw the blade
across my throat, the last noise
i shall hear is screams.

this is a very dark piece. I found myself enjoying it, I can tell that this is extremely personal. Your screaming out, yet no one can hear you, you want reasurrance, comfort, and love. But you've hurt and pushed away so many people who love you. The girl who cared for you caught my attention. You know, your not completely unlovable...
