Hell is the space between words
Endless….searching….helplessness
A raging fire seeking kindling
Lest its flame succumb
To hell’s emptiness

Premium Member My Reality

Living in my own reality

Where the outside world I see through my fantasy eyes

Dreaming of love

To be succumb to the actual coldness of reality

The Return.

You're back.
I knew you would come.
And I would succumb
to the numb
lost 
desire.
You're here.
So near I can taste you.
You waste me,
you liar!

Sorry for being dumb,
But darling, I'm not numb.

Not able to fulfill my own desires
My destiny has been mapped out
By your sadistic planning
My fate sealed
