Poetry: Grief

by Kate A

Created on: February 14, 2009

Stuck in time, sick with shame

I know not of who I am

Why I am here

Daily struggles become ugly nightmares

Rearing their gargoyle heads above the ground I'm sinking in

I can't feel any light offering me refuge

I can't see the dark though I feel it so near

What have I done to deserve this?

Why am I burdened with guilt?

My tomb opened, my coffin set for me

Yet I refuse to lay within

Refuse to let time take me

And lock me in

No God nor Guardian Angel to help me

I am alone in the world, it is scaring me

Your lies ringing in my ears, clear as tolling bells

I feel nothing except hate, fear and sheer Hell

I am the bastard child of this disease

This deceit

Nothing can save us

From light to darkness
