I AM THE DEAD
I've been killed here before.
A shameful name is carved on the wall,
and my blood is on the floor.
I remember fading out,
turning feeling into flavors,
on a passing storm cloud.
Hands that are always fists.
It's the only touch I get
so please beat me down.
Impervious to loss,
there's a click beneath my skull.
A tick that sounds like song.
Drowning out the words of cold empathy.
Leave me here...

My Friend
i can so surely feel the depth of pain within this piece--so all encompassing, the weight overwhelming, practically unbearable....
"...Hands that are always fists.

These lines truly depict that point in life, where so many find themselves--without much hope, and sooo willing to lie down within the solace of the darkness, and their own thoughts--wanting only to be left alone...to simply give up!
Sending Heart-Shine (energy) your way...to comfort...to bring you Hope-Lite in the Dark...ox
