Beauty Laced With Thorns

How can I be rid of this pain?!

It consumes me, eats me whole, finds me when I am alone, and tortures me in my dreams

My subconscious cries for justice

My heart screams for release

My soul fights for salvation

And my body moves for renewal


I am weak, no longer strong

You have sheared through my protective border

Promising life, inner peace and the secrets of love

I showed you the kingdom of heaven,

And fed you the fruits you crave, no, you require

But is it enough to please my saviour?


NO! Upon entering the new era,
You have scorned me, tormented me, and sent my soul to the damned

and yet, I am still alive

And I have faithfully returned to my master


Once more, you have called upon your servant

And have demanded more than any mortal can withstand

But you’ve asked for my hand and granted me false luxuries

Are you truly my saviour or the devil in disguise?


You are fortunate I am fated with no sight,

But a soul in which strength radiates within itself

So again, I blindly perform your deeds

So long as I am at last at peace and free


You seem to be a mystery, a nearly unsolved puzzle

Uncovering the pieces are too difficult

Yet you’ve placed the thorned flower in my hair

And assured me the beauty will not prick


Alas, this poem has now evolved into a story

So I shall end it now with a few more words

Free me now, end the pain, retire from these evil notions

Will you become my saviour,

Or will you be the one to send me to hell?
