Our Personal Hell

By RavenCross

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Dreams shattered and smashed on my floor, Through my own transgression I can tell you've seen Our own Personal hell. Yeah, you know we made it together and this is where we'll be. This is ours you know and that's where the period goes. You know that we're not the role models the expectations had hoped, We don't have faces they'll ever frame on cereal boxes. We're not about to bring this world to a revolution. Since everybody knows we're just in it for the thrill. Yeah, we heard voices in our heads and turned down the wrong path. It stopped being about the future and stopped being about the past, Since all we have to live in is now and that's all we'll ever have. Someone once told me long ago that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, But it seems that everyone who looks at us will tell you how truly ugly we are. We dug holes six feet down for ourselves, And now we're trapped in our own personal hell. Written November 21st, 2001 © on Nov 21 2001 03:44 PM PST   0 • 1
