Thriving
Take from me what was my heart,
Each ventrical severed.
Pick my feelings from your teeth
All pain tethered.
Excrete for me consideration
Regurgitate my care
Feed me lies, I love the taste
Bleeding and aware.
Peel back my nails and stroke the flesh
Painfully observe
I'd rather have you slit my throat
Than leave my sound unheard.
I give to you what was my soul
Rotting, decomposed
And of my indescretions
I'll lay them out exposed
Taste the solace of my skin,
Pluck from me the rose- Red and full of life,
That was my youth, my purity, my hope
Before the devil chose
To free me from the beauty and love,
The wonder and the prose
Of all the simple wonderfuls, beautiful and never ending
Throughout our Nature's throws
A love to give, forever sending
Feed on me, my loneliness
And every word I chose
Exacting out my emptiness
And thriving on my foes,
Give to me what I now lack,
and take back the fear and hatred
and stop the post traumatic cardiac,
don't leave me so devastated,
save me and help me,
bring me back,
I just want to once again be free,
I wish I could be an amnesiac,
to forget the past,
moving on and forward,
But I know, that forever has come at last,
and I'm falling, down,
down, farther and farther
down, into a completely pitch black darkness forevermore.

I wrote this for creative writing, and later revised it. I felt it really applied to myself, so I decided to share it with others.
