My Ink-Filled Hero


You are what molds the pain that I release;
you also create my enemies
as I sit here in this filth;
stained clothes,
tears bleeding from my eyes;

you stop me from giving in,
you help me cope,
as I watch the nicotine turn my skin
allowing sweat to seep from every pore;

You are what disables the insanity
and lets me know it will be okay
...eventually

You are what creates the dreams I ignore;
because they cannot exist elsewhere;
as I scrounge to find any unshattered piece
of any positive thing-left in me;

you try to help me find it underneath,
the ink that sets
in my dirty skin;
the anger hiding within;

bags beneath my eyes;
you try to diminish it
before it begins...
but it's semi-pointless;
with my emotions so unclear

promoting a nervousness;
impossible to prevail;
from this misery setting in my tangled hair

you allow sense to come of this.
So, thanks, I guess.
