Contempt

By DarkDruidess

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I have grown bored by my misery Tired of  being ripped to shreds Jaded by my own despair Weary of the wounds inflicted By those who claim to save me Cynical of the tears I cry Sitting here broken and bleeding Fed up with all lies Shoved down my throat Imposed by deceitful hypocrites  Suspicious of smiles Good intentions have never tasted So bitter and disgusting before Disillusioned by my depression Sneering at my reflection In the mirror in front of me Mocking my own pain Staring at my grief stricken face Feeling no pity or remorse For the way I have been treated By the evil that surrounds me Scornful of my aching heart Caused by human pretenders With their fraudulent concerns Disdainful of this life I lead Yes, I have grown bored with my misery Written April 16th, 2002 © on Apr 16 2002 06:59 AM PST, Tami Ellis   0 • 1
