way

way

down

in the midst
of loves deepest pits
where dead hearts still pound
inside sunken spirits
my soul is found

bound,
still under your spell
painfully pining
in some dark corner of hell

silently crying

lost faith
& bloody tears
make paint
realized fears
form a fragile canvass
the poetry i create
is just a pitiful prayer list
sacrificed to long forgotten saints

wow...this is DEFINITELY a poem to share.
im really loving this piece, and as so many people im sure, i can relate to this,
its really sad to think about and thinkin of memories and stuff
but you described it so perfectly..its amazing.
and i loved what you said about poetry..and that for you its
"just a pitiful prayer list sacrificed to long forgotten saint"
sometimes when you feeling all heartbroken and stuff, that what the poetry you create is at that time..and its kinda crazy..
things start turning out to be all cliche, its irritating.
i love this poem.
and i know that i will be revisiting it.
and every time it will probably get me even more into it.lol.
nice write!!! mad props..i will be checkin out more soon.
