Blind Misery

Blind Misery


I saw her weeping silently.
Her eyes red, they did bleed.
All alone she was, engorged in agony,
Among shadows and broken dreams.
The air was still, and stale.
Her skin so pale, fragile like lace.
Her body trembling weak and frail.
Beneath her cloud of misery and dismay.
I saw her existence fading, her soul rapidly decaying.
Bound in misfortunes, awaiting imminent doom.
In the echoes of silence, the clock slowly ticks.
Putrid fumes began to fill the dark decrepit room
Deep in the heart of anguish, amidst death’s womb.
Her breaths began to fade, her time ending soon.
Suffering, dread has become her best friend.
Yearning to be free from her curse, ailed only by the end.
Falling to pieces, torn to shreds.
Whirling thoughts twirling about in my mind,
Dizzy, I opened my eyes confused.
The miserable maiden looked back, she knew.
She Grinned at me, eyes glazed.


That girl that stands before my eyes,
That girl is me…
