...Seepage

By SolApathy

Why am I always locked
In my cage
Victim of your rage
Iniquitous thoughts
Fury of fire though m
y mind
Knowing I can’t rewind
I escape
Down to the depths of things unreal
Grotesque feelings so deceptive in their darkness
Starkness
Whipping like a flag in a hurricane
I am the cold dark acid rain
What joy to escape this insanity
Eviscerating my soul
Exsanguination as the x-acto lets my blood flow
The pain you inflicted escaping
…. As drops on the floor
Turning into a river that will soon be
...No more
I smile for the first time in eternity
Escaping this cage
 I watch you
Watch me
Let go

You control me
…No more

    This is pretty fantastic, I'm glad it popped to the front page so I could gander at it! I'm also pleased because it's nearly, so nearly my name. I like the premise of your poem request, excellent use of all those words :)

  • A former member wrote: You definitely have a gift for producing great work on the fly. As I have said before, we sometimes hurt ourselves to hurt the ones who hurt us. It's a fucking vicious cycle, because the ones who hurt us generally don't give a shit if we hurt ourselves. It only serves to prove their own sick views. Very well done, and yes, ironic too.
