The evening sun disappears <br />Behind a blackened landscape <br />My eyes attract no more tears <br />For too many have escaped... <br /> <br />I stare off into the distance <br />Lost in a memory from my past <br />I know it's no longer in existence <br />Yet it haunts me everlast... <br /> <br />Forever more I search for you <br />But this distance is too great <br />My heart keeps on moving through <br />Leaving behind only fate... <br /> <br />The mourning that some call life <br />I searcn for someone to hide <br />A road of alcohol lessens strife <br />Yet it burns me alive inside... <br /> <br />My soul is as hollow as the cavity <br />That once held my heart's emotion <br />A sudden pain courses through body <br />I've cut my arms without realization... <br /> <br />My body insists on living <br />While my mind does not at all <br />My hands are made unforgiving <br />With blade on my body they crawl... <br /> <br />I drain myself quite often now <br />A life less longing for future <br />I don't care when, don't care how <br />My way of life, self torture... <br /> <br />No one knows the pain that you gave <br />Neither I have the power to define <br />But I can't bear it, I'm tired to crave <br />On my body I follow my own lines... <br /> <br />My body is getting weaker <br />My mind might soon win the war <br />I'm plunging into a hole, deeper <br />Watching my fate from afar... <br /> <br />Yet my eyes search for light <br />Up ahead piercing the cage I've built <br />Within myself it's made of plight <br />Depression, anger, hate and guilt... <br /> <br />Misery that I've never known <br />I'm towards the end of my rope <br />A hand reaches me on its own <br />Defining me, creating new hope... <br /> <br />Pulls me into warm embrace <br />Now my eyes seem full of tears <br />They stream down all over my face <br />Washing away all my nightmares... <br /> <br />Soft lips kiss my tears away <br />And a voice whispers in my ear <br />Telling me it's going to be okay <br />Expressing love I always wanted to hear... <br /> <br />Heavy breathings make me fall asleep <br />Spreading new breath in the air <br />But everything goes dark again, deep <br />For the gentle hands that stroke my hair...<br /><br />RK<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ever-darkened-love/
