Bleeding on the pages
Forcing out the words
Feeling through the phrases
Hoping to be heard
I open up my mind
To demons in the dark
A future undefined
A past that leaves a mark
Muddling through mad thoughts
Filled with aches and pain
Battles I have fought
Nothing there to gain
Words bleed through the cracks
Seeping from the pores
Dripping down my back
Oozing out closed doors
Demons lurk and scream
Madness soon ensues
Lost inside a dream
Aching for my muse
Can’t sort through my thoughts
Tis quite a daunting task
They all come out in knots
No sense to try and ask
This tale is at an end
I humbly have resigned
I cannot make amends
Or calm my troubled mind
Look to my blood-stained page
I’ve laid for all to read
Past the pain and rage
For the reasons that I bleed
