Poem Post: "Void"

Composed on a bitter morning way back when I was 15.

Void
MINXIE

O, the woe of it all

when all thou see is nothing

but the eerie darkness soothing

from the tortures I receive

night by night

the corners of this poor soul

captured and pinned down

by the most disturbing voices

crying in destined suffering

just when I created

the most perfect choices.

Nothing lasts forever

but what am I to do when such

is made eternal in my tower

brittle and dark amongst red skies?

I curse none else but the soul

of which this materialized entity carries,

subconscious filled with everlasting grief

and mourning deep within a distorted abyss.

I pity the ever-following and loyal shadow

of such a worthless, unfaithful soul.

The mystery of darkness could never swallow,

such emptiness carried by

this impudent, immaterial ghoul.

This body is merely stuck,

in unreasonable worldly drought

twisting the mind and spirit without luck

creeping and seeping in my thoughts.

 Devouring nothingness and emptiness so sick,

suffering though had always amused me,

but see that as I stay and watch each second tick,

I still have nowhere to run..

Please credit me, by the way, if you wanna copy all or a part of the poem. Thanks. :3
