Suffocating in this state of mind Like a grain of soil On the wall of a perpetually filling Bottomless pit. All stale and collapsing mud. I can’t breathe And it is dark in here In this silence In this wet and stifling ***** blanket Of thin smiles That veil filth and dirt. Gritty, I can taste discontent ( restlessness stirred, agitated, weeping) Like a thorn in the side Of this torn and invisibly stitched mouth. My fingers bleed And doubt seeds Vicious weeds inside An already sick and nauseated mind. There is hurt in here And pain And the bittersweet unspoken refrain Of one lost in their Own directionless Domain. These walls I built, alone. That stare back careless And greet me daily with their Cold embrace. In this darkness, alone, I, us, we, cry. Small children, Whimpering in this feeling of self chafed friction. Whining, each whine followed by Gutteral, viscous, primal mutterings These madman Me, myself and i Locked in a tunnel Without light It is cold and we want so badly To relight the fire I claw at the fortification I have erected Around myself Then bleed some more Until the walls in front of me turn from la mort noire to rouge de sang Sitting here In this Abyss. Blinded by the inability to see The incapacity to feel Anything but the feeling of failure. This powerlessness to heal, All sealed up and drowning in my private pool of mud. Still it is dark in here, And wet, And bloodied And brooding. The cold walls are soothing And the veil still acts To conceal The extent of filth Scourging up the walls Of this inaudible and bidding cave.
