"Damned Daughter"

By Forever Cold

You have no idea how much pain i feel inside,
Do you feel it?
Can’t you see it bleeding from my side?
Can’t you feel it in the air as I walk by?
Can’t you see me dying inside?
The cancer is spreading in side of me,
You put it there…
Why can you make me feel alive??
As I tear the blade from my side,
Watch me bleed.
See just what you have done to Me..
You watch in such wonder
And disbelief..
How can you still stand there and smile,
While I bleed in this coffin you put me in
The cross is put down on me
And you still stand?
How can you let this be done to me..
As the dirt covers my eyes
You laugh..
What have I done?
Will you care while I sleep?
Will you care when I rise for you?
I was your damned daughter
And no one will take my place,
And yet you let me die..
You gave me your kiss,
Then forsaken me to the grave..
I will rise again,
You will feel the sting of my blade,
You remember it well
Do you remember how it felt when you slid it in to me??
Don’t you remember the blood that spilled?
I do…

    Marvelous ... The best I have read of you so far. So much pain. Not to mention the feel of being forsaken. That is indeed powerful, and it paints the picture of a "wrong doing", that is very hard to ever make right. Bravo!Tiger
