My Heart
Just a writing-don't get the wrong impression-lol-
My heart is so full of sorrow of pain and sadness-
it weeps and runs towards where the light
cannot reach and return-
towards where the red fires merge-
at the edge of my existence-
I run toward death a place
where there is nothing but anguish-
suffering-waves of destruction and cross's of the dead-
It makes my heart feel like moaning the longest of sobs-
I want to return I cry-I want my heart to whirl with
the stars above the earth above the cold clay-
I do not want to cling to the chains that bind me
over this terrable loneliness-
My trembling soul moves toward the abyss that half
opens its lips in the earth-devouring my world-
I feel alone-like the first dead man-naked-
imprisoned by the red sulphere that looks immensely
like hell-where threads of my blood pass burning-
I feel the foreboding ash jump-my heart weeps
in a place where misery is born and dies-
It's all filled with phosphorous falling
drop by drop leaving me its burning-
It's filled with curls of fire and defeated souls-
I climb the steps in the hostile night-
I want to open a door in my heart-that's what I want-
I scream-I cry-I weep-I suffer-I am weak-
I do not want to run the distance towards
where there is nothing but emptiness -
I sob falling inward from skin to soul-
River of nightmares my voice leaps up and is lost-
Rosarys of anguish I did not pray for this-
Desperate thread-my heart did not twist it-
Beyond my dark walls-beyond my boundaries
I cry out-I weep-I suffer-I lift my arms toward
the night so full of souls in defeat-
My cracked voice-my shattered soul-
My wasted years wounded and broken-
My lonliness has returned-the same lonliness
that my heart raised in night-
the same night from where they return-
I suffer-I weep-I cry-
my suffering is no longer of this world-
the night so full of lost souls....California Blue
