Poem Title:
Poem
Knowledge gained liberates or mutilates. Ramifications of reality’s realm reached make your insides want to abandon the body ship. Rocking back and forth as you hurl dry acidic pain expelled by the force of shell shocked lucidity: You’re not good enough to be loved. Breathing in is treason. Your heart demands release of life’s lease. On the kitchen floor crumpled dreams drag to prostrate form. Alone….. Every reason to stay is obliterated. Ascorbic failures scream. Heart blood transforms to salty rivulets. Self-loathing usurps the throne of belief. "Appeasement sacrifice,” it sagely suggests… "Your life!" Relevant Reasoning... For someone for whom love is cell oxygen grey matter food supreme soul sustenance, life without full bodied Love is death. Might as well... Cowardice cackles and goads…. The cut isn’t deep enough. Red streaked line mockery of mental hell feels abhorrence breathing between the sobs that one hears … No one hears Troubled mind has drained desirability’s delight. Not strong enough to live not strong enough to die, you are spent… negligence purged. Silence begs to benumb, yet a reminder remains. The thorn of truth finds a home. Embedded in my side, it won’t be denied. Removal immuned it is unseen by naked eye- exposed to the naked heart. With every movement of love making matrimonial mattress yet exudes the faint scent of virginal dreams... Pain permeates It digs in deep. Nothing will change. YOU cannot change. You are unlovable. You're troubled and troubling brain takes beauty down to notch of insane. Give it all away. Lavish and ravish. Obsessively bid for love while you auction respect away, but herein is the cursed truth: You are not good enough to be loved. You never were. You never will be. For Charlotte's Heart and Soul Contest September 2, 2014
