A Song Of Myself

6. The suicide sprawls on the bloody floor of the bedroom

Fading Away

Release me from the pains of the world.
Leave me alone as I lay curled
Up and crying on the bedroom floor.
I do not want to feel anything anymore.
Just let me poke and cut until every vein
Is bleeding all over the place. The crane
In the sky is taking me away from this place.
Everything that I used to want to trace
With child like wonder and curiosity
Is now spinning at a high velocity.
I no longer feel like I belong here.
All I want is to be forgotten and disappear
Like the sun does at the end of the day.
I want to fade away like every gray
Sky. Not even the rain can mask
The blood dripping. All I can ever ask
For is understanding although nobody
Could ever comprehend suicide or me.

8. I have said that the soul is not more than the body


The Collective Unconsciousness

My body is only but a vessel with a certain end,
But my soul is the aggregate of a life lived
(Plus more) that can transcend,
It is the collective unconsciousness of mind,
Of Intellect,
Of man,
Of past lives lived and remembered in dreams.

The soul goes beyond the body,
Beyond the realm of the physical,
It goes in to memories of those around me,
Into the universe as part the elements,
And into the spiritual.

It’s a connection to other lives,
A web of souls interconnected,
Like clusters of universes and galaxies,
All so far away and near yet put them all together,
They look like the central nervous system of higher being.

Every particle is a part of me that makes me who I am,
The interdependent energy that feeds my soul,
The transcendent synergy that goes into the world,
So that when my body dies and goes into the beyond,
I may become a part of the mystical realm,
I may become part of the intellect,
Of man,
Of past lives lived and remembered in dreams.

But the body is not much more than the soul,
It’s a vessel with the objective,
To carry the collective unconsciousness of man,
Temporarily,
Before it goes in to the beyond.

Sorry this has taken a while to judge. Congrats to all :)

Thank you for nominating me as a runner-up Miss_Sub. It's an honour and thanks for hosting such an interesting competition.

Wow, just amazing, stunning really. I can already tell that this came from your heart maybe even somewhere deeper. In fact, I know that it came from somewhere deeper. Keep well!
