AWAY IN MY FILTH I WALLOW
Broken hearted it seems to be
the only destiny fit for a king like me
Thy Queen, thy hand
how it slips away,
like the new dawn, of a new day
Tormented and ragged
haven't shaved in days,
bath time seems to be
a distant memory
In filth I lay
same spot, every day
my world elusively fades
from me
In the distance, her laugh
how it taunts my mind
her touch, it haunts me
at night
her kiss, that kiss
so hard to forget
eyes wide open
as she looked at me
Developing obsessions
of indescretions,
darkness over clouds my gloomy mind
Learning life lessons
by telling empty confessions
no morals
no anectdotes to realize
The curtains stay closed
the television off
no radio to calm my thoughts
no computer screens
or dirty magazines
to occupy my empty thoughts
maybe I am where I'm destined
but was falsely trying to sequester
an imaginary happy ever after
maybe I drowned out her words
and blanked out her good deeds
just to shadow, and mask her laughter
So I gaze upon the pictureless walls
and the empty funiture-less family room
just a bottle of Jack, and the clothes on my back
drinking my sorrows away
as quickly as they're consumed

I love this piece for so many reasons but I have to say this...
Your poem was heartfelt from the start and the raw emotion kept rolling deeper through every line
And you took me there...to every room... where your absolute emotions exhumed..
Superb detail told your beautiful, dark tale and I hope you bring us more of this...:)
Regards Carey xo
