A thousand cuts from life's cold betrayal <br />In your dark eyes a sad girl's portrayal <br />Pain and anguish from Love's foul sickness <br />To crude lies your heart bears witness <br />Shrouded and twisted in endless despair <br />Soul misconstructed and black like your hair <br />Screams faint but loud like the cries of the dead <br />Emotions bled dry by the tears you once shed <br />Evil comatose but subsisting inside <br />Alone in the darkness with a wish of suicide<br /><br />Evy Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/a-portrait-of-my-lover/
