A Glance Down Inside
As you glance down into the black emptiness that awaits inside your soul,your mind.
Will it come to you and clench your words now,or will you ever escape the tangled web they continue to weave,the web you weave yourself.
Tangled,entrapped in your thead of sins,every living part of you stuck dangling helplessly forever.
You struggle to breath under the shallow midnight skies that keep you hypnotised,made you lost in the darkness,the hollow blank emptiness that lingers stained in your thoughts. Scaring your feelings.
All these raw emotions brought fourth to your awareness,was taken by a glance down inside yourself.
Falling further down,keeps you searching. Down inside the flame you burn and blister,you hurt so badly.
But it was caused by your own hands.
Painful memories of a faded past drowned your dreams of a better tomorrow once known by your heart,the time and days where a smile was worn upon your face and laughfter poured from you.
But day after day your hopes for tomorrow made of joy fade away,deep and gray.
A endless black hole now overtakes the flame that once burned inside your soul.
Now you only take pleasure in your pain,the pain that broke the silence inbeded in your voice.
Open your eyes filled with tears streaming down blurring your view of the world which passes before you.
Your tears flow from you like rain that falls to the ground with heavy droplets that bruise the life which moves beneath you.
Your yesterdays,your tomorrows, this dying day exstinguished the fire fueling your better dreams that once were apart of you.
Smoke rises from the ashes which was your life that is lost forever,lost inside the dying flame of the fire.
Looking into yourself has made you realize that the soul that fills your heart has melted into nothing and you ache inside for you have become broken ,unfixable,worthless, Why must you hurt,why do you feel so much pain inside.
You struggle but will not remember the woven web that suspends you will only tell lies,leaving your questions just questions with no answers.
If you would of know this was what you would of been shown, You would of covered your eyes, blinding the dying flame.
Which you will only convince yourself has only grown hotter.
If you only would of known, you wouldn't of peaked, never would of took a glance down inside yourself.
The self that hides under false emotions, you are nothing, you are just a lie.
