By VagrantGypsy

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

I sit here motionless staring into the nothingness of life Focusing on the swelling pain of my arms and legs instead of the Yelling taking place outside my bedroom door and inside my head A cheesy info merchial blares in the next room and Blood starts to drip from my frustration I hold my arm afraid that I've gone too far this time and can't come back There's no more t.v. screaming through the wall from the other room Only the bantering voices that fade as Footsteps become distant down the steps Now I'm left alone in the high pitched silence interrupted by the occasional raised voice from the basement I hold my arm against my chest and wonder how there can be so much rage inside of me from A world full of noisy info mercials and fading footsteps Written November 5th, 2001 © on Nov 09 2001 11:09 AM PST   18 • 0 • 10
