Bliss

Bliss It seems as though I’m getting nowhere, born within this awful despair A feeling hangs throughout the air, like nothing I’ve ever felt before Licking flames in the pit for the fire, seem to match an inner ire That constantly fuels the burning desire, felt for only the one I wish to adore  Shadows grace the floor around me, taking forms that could not possibly Exist anywhere but my own fancy, all from the serene moon above Demonic creatures of my very fears, born forth from beauty they appear Trying to get them away from here, I quickly think about the one I love I remember a time that I thought, I could escape the pain these demons wrought But it was all, all of it for naught, because those I trusted, they lied And I have learned that when you trust, you invite betrayal (within lust) Take it from me, my heart is as rust, and I’m dead already inside The pressure I can no longer take, sanity now something I forsake Cannot withstand it, I may only break, after I’ve come this far It makes me wonder if there is bliss, somewhere there must be none of this No doubt the greatest thing that does exist, like living as a star Yes a star sounds good to me, always looking down constantly To a very enjoyable degree, I can always see her from above So close to the very upper heaven, yes bliss can be found in this star’s welkin She can make my hell an Eden, for she is the one that I love Written November 24th, 2001 © on Nov 24 2001 06:32 AM PST   18 • 0 • 8
