My darkness

[Ben]

I'm trapped!
Help me the fire is coming,
Help me before my flesh starts burning...
I'm trapped!
Save me from what I'm becoming,
Save the light from the dark that's so cunning...
I'm trapped!
Salvage what's left the damage has been done,
Don't bother anymore I'm too far gone...

[Ben]

" The Soldiers Life"

The soldiers life is not for all
A soldier must be willing to give his all
He is overworked and underpaid
A truer patriot was never made
Ready to go at any time
Wherever there is trouble or the first sign
His courage and honor are unsurpassed
Ready and willing to complete the task
Travelling to lands both near and far
He stands his post and looks at the stars
Wondering what he might have done
If he had not chosen to carry a gun
Remember the next time that you are driving by
And see the flag flying proud and high
That somewhere out there a soldier stands
Weary and cold in a foreign land
Protecting our country from our foes
Standing tall and proud come rain or snow.

Ooooh I like it!

[Ben]

Life just gets in the way,
Maybe I could find a way out.


Maybe some rope or a cut to the throat...

I like your poetry. I'm not one for 'gritty' things but I think you have some talent in literature and I quite like your word choice.


Also, your reference link isn't working! Thought you should know. 

[Ben]

I'm usually pretty bad at poetry and writing, so when I think of something I jot it down real quick.


And thanks for letting me know. Looks like none of the links work so I'll go mess with that.

[Malach1te -- Marauder]

You know, a poem by Charles Bukowski once said something similar, about how poetry shouldn't take 'forever' and comes to you.


Alright then, hope it works out!

[Ben]

I've lost everyone that I left behind


I just left one day without a word
I guess I got what I deserve...




I'm sorry.

[Trixsie Vixen]

There is no justice, there's just us.

Part one:


Why do
You
Look right through
What do I even mean to
You
Say I'm your everything but I know it's not
True
Love is all that I'm asking from
You

Part two:


Every time I'm with you I feel a little piece of me die


Sitting in this chair trying to escape my own god damn mind


You smoke a bowl of my soul and I can feel the burning from inside


And now I can't even cry because the fire has taken my eyes


Hell is inside

Very good.
I was watching an episode of Disjointed and I thought "that poetry sounds like Ben's"!


Consider setting some to psychedelic animation with background bongos.
