Question:"darker shade of gray II"


What does your mind see,
when you close your eyes.
Just what is that feeling,
so deep dark inside.

I can't even fathom,
understand this pain.
Just fruitless endeavor,
you see I'm just insane.

I've tread down this path,
for thousands of years.
I try to suppress this,
yet hell sears my soul.

Yes I was abandoned,
left to learn all on my own.
The depth of my abuse,
far worse than ever told.

Holes inside my heart,
my pitiful long life.
The prayers I cried out,
unanswered, now forgot.

My time now shrinking,
I'll not suffer anymore.
Everyday sinks deeper,
into black pits of sin.

Tragic it seems to,
cleanse away my pain.
The stairway to Heaven,
is closed for repairs.

There can be no tomorrow,
with yesterday now dead.
Late at night in my tears,
nothing but gray dread.

Very good, I think the flow is better and it carries through to the end with more interest, but don't want to carry on a conversation again, hehe.
btw...where did June S. get her info?? Jerry Springer??

You're welcome, and thank you. Report It

    Nice work:)

    it's good but is it really yours
    rumor has it you steal your work from others
    there is no difference in a thief and a liar
