Where can I go to escape this paindays in, days out, there's only chagrinAll is lost, my pure innocenceIn it's place came lonelinessNo loving words, no soft caressthoughts of ending this pitiful existencecame dancing in my confused mindI long to cut the sliver cord that holds me bindto this world of heartless inconvenienceit's smothering me with a strong holdenveloping me in its deadly foldthis life of mine is meaninglessdeath is beckoning me, deadly enchantressThrowing away all I believeI am as a flower in a gardenfresh in the morn, withered in the eveshut up tight in a trash bindarkness is my companionand hot tears my consolation Written October 13th, 2001 © on Oct 12 2001 05:23 PM PST   0 • 1
