I stare into the creeping dark,
Fear awaits me, like a shark.
My body shakes, shivers and crawls,
I stare at these enclosing walls.
Don't kill me, you promised this,
And i believed you, sealed with a kiss.
But now my trust is fading fast,
I'm not sure how long i can last.
The temptation of the knife,
To slit across and kill my life.
To rescue me from burning hell,
The one i sadly know so well.
I live with demons, dogs and devils,
Depression comes and goes in levels.
And all i've got are darkened eyes,
Mistrusted fear and dirty lies.
I see her there, that golden glow,
The deepness circles, so much to show.
Please sever my head and serve it well,
Remembrance of where my soul fell.
My eyes lie open forever more,
My body washes up ashore.
Take me to those dizzy heights,
The memories not filthy fights.
That jingly laugh that breathless kiss,
The eyes i never learnt to miss.
But now i'm scared and all alone,
Intoxicated, unanswered phone.
If thats what you want to do,
Promise me and please be true.
Remember my china doll face,
Then i'm gone without a trace.
I wrote this a long time ago, and just found it..

I rather enjoyed this, if mainly due to the adaptive nature of the poem. In my interpretation, the images and ideas sent into my mind fluctuated and changed, as did the mentality of the thoughts behind the words. From fear of darkness to death and suicide, fueled in the end by a fractured love and loneliness of heart. How tragic, though extreme, but such was it's ability to make me think and alter my understanding of it as I read on enough to make me like this. Fun stuff and well done.
