Breathing In Poison

Poem by: ashtray0belief
Colourful beads scatter under my feet
Fragements of hurt around me
All the walls that bleed silently
Tears of rain pouring down on all
Someone bribes a child
One whose innosence has long vanished
Reflections of fault in everything
It's like looking in a mirror
Distracting voices captivate me
Drawing me farther away from the truth
I fight away the tears
though they overflow inside
My weakness mustn't be made known
No one must know my state of mind
No one must know me
My forsaken guard still stand
Weak and worn out
But visible enough to fool
I hide behind a melody
Trying to escape the poisoned words
Spoken by faces once trusted
Faulsly, they turned away too
Turned to blurry figures
Wore a mask too
Hasty feet racing on unstable ground
Racing me, seeking a pointless victory
Pavements around, filled with hurt
Repulsed, I refuse to turn away
For I seek pain and disappointment
The last glimpse of hope,
Chocking under the weight of the darkness inside
I withdraw my promises
They don't belong in this world
I forget my dreams
I breathe in the poison I so hunger for
A tree, hitting itself with its own branches
Craving for stronger wind...

I liked it.
SERIOUSLY exactly that is what kills me everyday, everytime I look out or hear people speak and stuff.How can you be happy, ignore when this is happening around you and then dare calling yourself a human with human fealing.No, I wont accept that and I wont love you as long as you dont feel the pain of what YOU and I and WE ALL have done!No.
I agree completely. I'm so sick of people always being "Be positive! Life is beautiful!" and stuff like that. Wake up and smell the shit sir! People are HURTING all around us and no one gives a FUCK! So sick of these ignorant assholes that go on and ON about how great life is!.... It's not great for everyone.
