Work of Art


Sharpened blade and glistening skin
This shall be the final sin
Dancing down the silver drain
Fall crimson beads and scorching rain

Sketch, poor artist, every detail
Every shade of darkness known
Paint the torment on your canvass
Live the pain you've called your own

They will find you lying here
In this foul pool of fear
A portrait only you could see
Will cover your body beautifully

Sketch, poor artist, every detail
Every hurt you've ever known
Leave the torment on your canvass
Leave the pain you called your own

This is dark and beautiful. Having known many people who self-harm I can see the emotions trapped in every word, as the pain is trapped until the crisom release comes. I have a story and poem a young lady wrote called "The Garden" and this poem remined me of it. To this day it is my favorite piece of writing and this is also one of my new favorites. I look forward to reading more of your work. Dandy said you were an excellent writer and she and I are poetic soulmates, as always she was right. iblieve

Silver Hawk...this is amazing! I can relate to this...oh too well. Brings back all those old memories. I do think you are an excellent writer...my soul mate nailed that one. Now...what I dont understand is him saying...as usual I am always right...lol. Wouldnt know it from the way I "organize" stuff around here.
Beautiful and dark, just the way I like it:)~Dandy

iblieve~ Thank you so much for reading. I try to post as much as I can, but I don't write much anymore. This was one of those things I just had to get out, and the blade and I don't see eye to eye anymore. This is my new release.

Insanity~ I've tried to stay out of the "darkness," but sometimes it just comes out of nowhere. Thanks for reading. :)

Deanseven~ Don't thank me, hun. Thank you for responding.

Dandylion~ You may just be my first fan! :) I really appreciate your support and the fact that you told someone about me. It's also really great to know that there is someone else that understands. Thank you so much.

Darkestdoor~ Thank you for reading... post your piece. I'd like to read it.

I really really like this one... makes me think that a lot of my creativity is a result of my pain. I think theres a lot of us out there that see such beauty in pain.

erica... pain can be beautiful, sometimes only the "artist" can see it's beauty, though. Thank you for reading.

*peace*
