Cleansing My Soul

I cannot continue to live consumed by the thought of you, the thoughts
of you that are raping my mind. My addiction to you is not healthy and
is slowly and painfully desecrating my spirit. Slay the feelings of
nostalgia I have, remove the memories that gives me this notion! I
will not be drowned by the newfangled wave of lies. I will not let
your minacious words empale my weary heart. Let me be set free by your
unwillingness to care, Let my broken wings carry me from this life,
and infused me in another. Let the weight of my habituation to your
faults be lifted. The seduction will hang with my old self by a noose
in a metaphoric closet inside myself! Where your devilish acts will be
burned at the stake, never to reappear in this life. I am rid of you!
I am finally me!

  1. I loved the dark tone to this one. It was intense. This is a strong feeling here, when we're to a point of near obsession and all we want to do is rid ourselves of them. I think that's why the dark nature of this piece is so striking, because in order to be free of something so powerful it can take going through hell to do it.

    Am I even making sense? I'm tired tonight so forgive me if I don't :)

  6. One of the lines from one of my favorite songs said, "I don't want to live without reason". This reminded me of that. Freedom. :)
