Reading Is Torture
Well im thinkin that ive always been a romantic
Ive just always been concerned with all girls
To live in a world without them would be tragic
They love to run their fingers through my curls

And just when i think im in love with all
I find myself fallen...

Our Torture Chamber
At times we tend to feel nothing but pain,
feeling like we have nothing to gain,
our hearts once again a wrecking ball and a chain,
on our sleeves an obvious worn out blood stain,

Our thoughts slowly driving us insane,
in our hearts an obvious torture chamber,
broken hearts not...

There’s torture of the body
And the torture of the mind
But the torture of the heart
Is the most horrendous kind.

To know you must not express
The wealth of emotions felt
To have to suppress the dream
Is to burn until you melt.

You are careful of each word
And you laugh...

Premium Member The torture of the torcher
What is the torture of the torcher 

Destined to carry light inside, blinded by the darkness outside 

Can the two exist in a world of infinite color … Where neither is as clear as the light that shines and the darkness it consumes.  

Can...

Torture
Whispers in my head I hear it all so clearly 
Negativity in my brain bordering on weary 
Enemy caught me when I was very weak 
Tortured me for the treasure that they sought to seek 
Vigil I remained though I admit that they were close...

Tis Torture and Not Mercy
Tis torture and not mercy. Heaven is here!
  
 Painfully in reach and yet no power is apt to attain thee. 
 
 What shall then quell passions pursuit? 

Oh heart that yearns for thee alas, such arduous love aroused. 

 Thou oh love...

One Million and a Half Stories On the Art of Torture
Nobody moves...nobody talks,
And who dares...gets sharp folks,
Stuff his mouth...stuff her rear,
Terror reigns and tearing fear,

Disfigured being a pierced face,
To whomsoever present my case?
They are all backing his daily deed,
This new species...inhuman breed,

Countless kids they're all slain
Like Abel by Brother Cain,
Ali does not need his bath,
Because...

It's December 21st and the days are getting longer
Won't be long before this damn winter is conquered
Had one too many
That's more than plenty
At my ripe old age each one's absolute torture

School Torture-- Adult Image
Bookworm, loser, geek and nerd
Words that I have always heard
Young years turning into old
Hurtfulness that leaves me cold
Getting picked on-- always beaten
My happiness was lost and fleeting
Kicked and laughed at
Pushed and shoved
No one cared or showed me love
Never being picked on teams
Crushing all my precious...

Does anyone else's mind torture them like mine does every single  moment of living. It whips me with terrible thoughts that leaves gashes that never heal. They get infected overthinking is the infection. It burns, it makes me cry so much. I need medicine,...

How proud they put them on display
Two thousand of the first of fortyk
There President Bukele did say
They’ll live in the jailhouse for decades
he went on boasting, in jail it’s judgement day,
as he held his glass of brandy toasting
inmates, suspected violent gang members 
moved to a...

Zzzzz
For you who fund
our pain and grief
Zzzzz is sleep

For us
Zzzzzz is certain death
we are bombed because you sleep

The silence 
a massacre unfolding
Zionists rejoicing

You all pray
for yourselves
ah now it matters
who, pray tell cares
about the children in camps
you empty prisons
yet fear  the little children
more than any virus
moral decay ...

"The Depths"

From the depths
silence.

Where 
are the voices
of other 
women?

In that other place,
the monsters violate, 
they take and take
bloody all, what they want

the dreams of women
are torched, murdered, 
next to them, 
the sweet dreams of lives 
 
gone with their children -

those lives and dreams
the monsters...

Drenched in tears, I wrench in response to the pain I sense.
Caused by wrong desirers, walls, guards, and the electric fence.
Put here to stop free choice by man,
To keep him from becoming all that he can.

To hold imprisoned, crushing hopes and dreams.
To inflict hurt and...
