My Misery

Once again, hitting dead ends following my heart.
Uncontrollable downward spiral I slowly self destruct.

The endlessness of heartache I hide within myself.
The excruciating, prison of pain in which I'm made to dwell.

There's no escaping this contagious plague of uncontained misery.
Behind me, in front of me, all I see is dead ends through eternity.

Lost in the darkness with no given guiding light.
I pray to the gods of this world please just let me die. Let me die..

I am a curse, wandering this earth not even existing at all.
I'm trapped within my haunted skin of an empty zombified vessel.

Veiled behind my walls of sorrow, I evade the thought of a new tomorrow.
Tormented with faith and what could be, I deny all expectations of hope willingly.

I'm trapped in a Black Sea within my soul, a never ending Abyss of pain I let take control. 
I can't take no more of this sorcery, oh why do I let it torture me.

I'm stronger then this but I just can't hold on, when I know everything is forever going wrong.

Time took a toll on my delicate heart, and cursed me with this heartache of the want of giving up.

Dark, haunting, mystery are the words that come to mind after reading your poem. It sounded anapestic in many places. Your use of homophones was well done.

I can't take no more of this sorcery, oh why do I let it torture me.

I could really hear the beat of your poem in this line. Fantastic choice of words and rhythm. 

Another 5 star poem. I'm now a fan! 

Favorite part: 

I am a curse, wandering this earth not even existing at all.
I'm trapped within my haunted skin of an empty zombified vessel.
