Submissions by Hooded

Lost and confused
Emotions have run amok
Can't find North
I've reached deadlock

Sunk and perplexed
Feelings are blocked
Can't find East
I've reached gridlock

My compass of morality
Keeps turning and spinning
Offering me
No direction or clarity

My compass of morality
Keeps spinning and turning
Offering me
Nothing but insanity

Broke and alone
Senses have stopped
Can't find South
I've become laughingstock

Silent and ruined
Vocal cords clogged
Can't find West
Back to the starting...

You scream out your blackened lungs at me
Spitting toxic saliva across the room
Your voice amplifies as utter rage takes a hold
You wait for a reaction, but my facade is stone cold

Why you so angry and out of control?
Have my actions finally taken their toll?
I stand firm against your abuse
Your outburst has no excuse

Your use of profanity
Tries to break my sanity
But I am stronger than you think
Your evil words will not bring me to the brink

Your use of profanity
Will not break my sanity
I will attack you with my silence...

Dust choked mirror reflects dark sunken
orbs beneath crescent moon halves
Mutated skin wrists hang from frail
fractured limbs of tormented sinew

I've been here before and I know the routine
I've seen this before and I know what it means

Luna disc penetrates silver shards
across splintered boards of decline
Concentric circles of aching frown sends
ripped muscles into relentless spasm

I've been here before and I know the routine
Three hundred and sixty degrees
Right back down on my hands and knees
Three hundred and sixty degrees...
