Flesh and Blood
by c10_h12_n2_o on May 05, 2003Like a violent fire, scathing my body,
Speechless, without tears.
Concentrating on the pain, nothing else.
I cover my head.
Seclusion in my self, I close my eyes again.
Deep breathing, fading to black.
It dissolves the edges, corroding my view.
I can't think anymore.
It's the vitality I can't cope with,
Not the pain.
I can stand bleeding,
But I just can't stand living like this.
Maybe I'm just not deserving of this great gift,
This divinity, so pure, so grand,
Yet at the same time so vile and desecrated.
Pain, the extraordinary paradox.
Innocent but still so feared.
So simple with a thousand complexites
And misunderstandings.
If you underestimate it, you will become it,
But if you flee from it, the pain will stab you in the back.
If you test it, you may not have enough breath to whisper,
So your last words and choked and broken,
Alike my self.
Slit my throat and watch me bleed,
I hope you die.
