Raaah! Poetry!

[Alemira]

I decided to post some of my poetry here, since this community seems to be super accepting and open minded, I'm sure there will be someone to administer constructive criticism of some sort. I'll post here when I remember. They come to me late at night when I'm trying to sleep and my brain just wont calm the fuck down. I just say to myself "Ah well" and I write something. It gets it out and I can finally shut my eyes and sleep.

Enjoy it.

Nightmares

It tears away my pride - impossible?
Pushes me onto my already weak knees
Degrades me more than I thought possible.
This surely can't be real.

My loved ones ripped from
open arms - wide open the door
where is everyone ...?
Surely they have not left me.

I can't be left, not again
Unable to process such a thought
I wander aimlessly through
A forest of the damned

To find those close to me
Confined within coffins
Burning, melting.
Surely this is ...

Shrill scream, piercing.
Awoken, sweating ..
Where am I?
Another one...

The Road Ahead

Don't! Stop! Please!
It crumbles, weak
Atmosphere - toxic
My heart can't take the hurt

Show me what it's like
to have a whole heart
I have never known
Catastrophic tales o' cruelty.

Fear - overcoming
Sanity, peace, stability
Nothing else remains
Empty, desolate - left wanting

Do not underestimate
the power of the darkness
or be gobbled up, decimated
destroyed, degraded

Be wary, my soul
For there is a long road ahead.
