Goodbye my love.

By Exodus

And I pushed the blood aside.
And I denied it was mine.
So you might understand.
Why I cry alone in the darkness.

Cursing the sunlight as I storm off.

I searched for weakness.
In your cold heart.
But I died in your eyes long before.

You hold my hand.
And roll your eyes.


You don’t like the sound of my voice.
The star gazed look of lonesome.
I beg for your forgiveness.
You shrug me off like a dusty chore.

Damnit! Don’t you see you’re killing me.

I’ve done everything but nothing.







Further I fall, into the infinite shadow.
That is us.
I seemingly grow smaller as you lift your foot to crush me.
Once again.


You’re walking all over me.




Trust

Is just a broken thing in the ruins of memories.


The portraits laugh….but their eyes give an icy glare.



And I pushed the blood aside.
And I denied it was mine.
I fell to your feet and begged for mercy
On my heart.


The jaded sense of this all

Is wearing off.

And I’ve become numb to your sharp words

Your cunning, sick sense of humor

As you tear me down some more…




I will write my story in blood.
I will vow, I will dedicate my entire life
To getting you back for this
And making you

SUFFER.


Damn this suicide.



Can’t seem cut you the same way you have.

    Ooo... this one traveled from dark to darker to roller-coaster-rage to something resembling quiet despair... great stuff. The emotions of your poems are one of their best assets, I love it!
