    Life Interrupted

    Voices screaming,yelling

    Personalities ripping,tearing

    Emotional reckage destroying

    Dismanteling a heart that's breaking

     

    Thorns of scenes past

    Breaking through the minds skin

    Abruptly,harshly,fast

    So much darkness,so much pain

    That deep within lies a victim slain

     

    You look in the mirror

    And all you see

    Is a life disturbed

    A life interrupted

     

    And so now you bring to surface

    To face off with your demons

    Demons that ripped at the seams

    Seams of your very soul

    Left you bleeding,dieing,and cold

     

    You take the thorns

    From your own heart

    Bury them deep within

    That mask of old

    Slicing,ripping,tearing it apart

    Breaking the chains

    Chains of a tattered life

    Disturbing the silence

    You once consoled yourself in

     

    Voices screaming,yelling

    Personalities ripping,tearing

    This is the picture painted

    Of a life disturbed

    A life interrupted

    A life broken

    A life mended

    A life interrupted

    No more.

    This is honest and gutwrenching, flavored deep with a tangible aura of hope and realization. I read many, many poets in this site, but very few have your capacity for honesty and style, and a clear love for words. This is an easy 10. You should be proud of your poetic talents.

    Thanks for all the comments on my poetry ,I am a survivor of Domestic Violence and the words I write are the pain and the joy,the misery and the sunshine,the tears and the shame of what I went through it means a lot to know that someone out there likes the work I do when I write,I am actually thinking of putting all of my poems into a book and getting them published.What do you think??

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
