so much death
lit a thousand fires and watched it burn
killing every one that got too close

no remorse
i run away to forget it all
but haunted by my wretched ways
I can never escape the pain

i feel sick
churning inside from my disgust
do i deserve happiness after what I’ve done

played everyone, even myself
and end up alone trapped inside my mind
this is what I’ve earned

don’t try to talk me down
I know the truth, it’s sharp and cold
and she only knows me well
but my life has been swallowed in lies
my life has been transformed to hell

can angels survive in such a place
or do they burn with tainted eyes
and scourged from the inside
till consumed by the surrounding vile

escape again
stick the knife so deep in
twist it down an endless spiral
till light can no longer defile

this is the end
Forever we said....
and forever we'll lie
I started writing this poem about a month or two ago but it never felt finished until today.

This is very emotional (as it should be).  I love it!
