Dark Waters
Tidal wave of emotions Thrash against my soul Sharp arrows piercing Dark skewers taking hold On this blank page I leave their mark The jagged script Makes me gasp Is it wrong To express such pain?

Anger
Burning rage In the pit of my soul Eating me alive Consuming me whole Life’s lustre lost Joy has been drained out A sinkhole of despair Engineers a whirlpool of doubt Fury but no target Anger but no aim Frustration with no relief Agony with no gain Locked in a cage By anger imprisoned Forgiveness… Continue reading
