Fiery Pyre
Razor sharp,
cold as ice.
Surgical steel,
ends my plight.
Ruby red droplets,
flowing free.
Demons cackling,
won’t let me be.
Heated water,
drowses my soul.
Pills and alcohol,
do their role.
Life just fades,
too heavy for me.
My fiery pyre,
floats out to sea
cold as ice.
Surgical steel,
ends my plight.
Ruby red droplets,
flowing free.
Demons cackling,
won’t let me be.
Heated water,
drowses my soul.
Pills and alcohol,
do their role.
Life just fades,
too heavy for me.
My fiery pyre,
floats out to sea

Nicely described. PS: should be TOO heavy for me, I think. Regards, Robert.

What a visual... The despair and suffering is shared in a way that so clearly reflects your inner turmoil. Love this, and hugs x
