gawk
find me in my wasteland
looking awkward and depraved
beautiful light shining so darkly
hateful being of envy looking at everything shiny
gawking at what I want
I crave a pureness of soul
it will never be mine
I'm not blind
it takes an innocence I don't have
corrupted thoughts don't lie
my senses aroused by horror
turn a trick over in my mind
finding fascination in the damned
I wish I was beautiful
I'm not
I hurt
on the inside I hunt
I scour for truth with blood on my hands
scribbling blasphemies while I pray
i'm down on my knees asking forgiveness
while my demons prophesy my torture

Sometimes getting bloody and battered has a weird sort of beauty, too... (just my own little thought process) ... lol... I also, adore your poetic prowess, dear Brenda.... I read most of your poems, not commenting on a lot because I don't want to overwhelm with an onslaught (certainty) of comments.... haha....Just know, you're pieces always affect, provoke thought, inspiration and resonate with me in different and valued ways ...
This one, I had to respond .... As I feel your words and the essence shared, so very deeply.
Thank you for sharing the multifaceted sides of your talented spills with us-🙏🏻

This is an intriguing write. I read it twice to take it all in. It's as if you're gathering yourself to set aside(as if we could). Like an assessment that we wish we could box up and take a break from.
Like I said, very intriguing. I really like it.

I like how you write with about an internal struggle "scribbling blasphemies while I pray", the two forces fighting, going back and forth.
Excellent ink crim.
