standing in silence
living in beautiful humiliation
my broken heart
shatters like thick glass
hitting the shining ground
i stand there no longer
i kick the bloody glass aside
i walk
down the black, wet street
horrifying creatures all around me
but i pay them no mind
nothing but screams
do i hear behind me
i kiss this hell goodbye
as i walk away
with black tears rolling down my pale face
i smile
i wipe off my shirt
for blood runs down my stomach
for the hole where my heart use to beat
goodbye to this place
goodbye my dark kingdom
goodbye to me

The author's comments:
its very sad but it goes with my poem "Here I Stand" it kinda tells how you can only hold on to something/someone. it tells how misery can only get you so far. or push you over the edge.
