Blood wine, shade of red
Envelope me in words unsaid.
Angel whispers fill the air
to calm me through this dark despair.
I walk into an empty room
and only see what's broken in two.
Lying in the same position
fighting my way through this painful transition.
Frightened to be alone at night
for fear of not seeing the morning light.
I can't believe you did this to me.
Sometimes it gets so hard to breathe.
My heart races and my hands shake
I don't know how much more I can take.
The dark allure that temps me everyday
is the only thing that makes me stay
above water and far away from the thoughts
that haunt me every which way.
Your actions that speak and the words
you sell burned me like the fires of Hell.
End this torture I beg you please.
Send a cure for this horrible disease.
To repair what's been broken in two
I know I must get away from you.
I take this knife and with the blade
do I cut our ties and fade away.
I need to get back to that place of light
where the flowers bloomed and the sun
shone bright.
The eyes I see full of terror
are joined by a pasted smile in the mirror.
Remembering the days when I used to fly free.
Remembering the person I truly miss is me.
As a poet, let me say well done! The meter is great and it's a nice little couplet poem. You just keep getting better and better, Benny. We'll be seeing great things from you.
