Bitter Sweet the... Suffering
I stare into oblivion<br/> And wish that I was there.<br/> <br/> In my dreams we never parted,<br/> you never left me broken-hearted.<br/> Spurned by you my love betrayed,<br/> hurt, dejected and dismayed<br/> <br/> Ribs of ice cage my heart<br/> since you tore our love apart.<br/> Sorrow-filled, I reminisce,<br/> how my life came to this.<br/> Devastated you left me,<br/> my loneliness is agony.<br/> Left me to this SUFFERING,<br/> in my sadness I begin…<br/> <br/> …to stare into oblivion <br/> and wish that I was there.<br/> <br/> You never meant to cause me pain,<br/> or so you said so please explain,<br/> how your oaths of love for me<br/> ended with my misery.<br/> I’ll nevermore know your embrace<br/> or gaze with loving at your face.<br/> All I have are my memories,<br/> tarnished by later discoveries.<br/> <br/> Love’s loss is hate’s gain<br/> Compassion turns to pain<br/> Wasted years drowned in tears<br/> Life torn apart so I start…<br/> <br/> …to stare into oblivion<br/> and wish that I was there.<br/> <br/> My existence is now meaningless,<br/> this torment too harsh to express.<br/> Pathetic fantasies of what I should have done,<br/> my eyes now locked into oblivion.<br/> <br/> These are my emotions<br/> which with you now I share<br/> You’ve heard the words I’ve spoken<br/> but still you do not care.

Blood pumps, rhythmic pulse<br/> Encased within my loving host<br/> Serenity shattered, torn from the womb<br/> Pitiful screams, bloodstained I’m born<br/> <br/> Depression the foundation on which life is built,<br/> Innocent childhood laughter, now tears of adult guilt<br/> Passion for life; impossible to maintain<br/> When every emotion leads to pain.<br/> Eyes once bright with the joys of youth<br/> Now red-rimmed scarred by truth<br/> The burden of existence persists<br/> Bowed, near broken, misery kissed<br/> <br/> I look within seeking peace<br/> A place of solace, my pain to cease<br/> But there’s no escape from self torment<br/> The ceaseless depressive descent.<br/> My soul consumed by black bile<br/> my heart unable to reconcile.<br/> Happiness is impossible to find<br/> When melancholia swamps my mind.<br/> <br/> Delving deep within my mind, abnormal introspection<br/> Alone inside my head, depressive reflection<br/> Solitary soul, from company I recoil<br/> Involuntary reclusive in mental turmoil<br/> <br/> A morbidity of the spirits permeates my life<br/> I can’t predict a future unfettered by this strife<br/> Negative emotions prevalent in me<br/> Birth’s descent into melancholy.

Can’t you see? Religion is fallacy<br/> Worship with me the god I decree<br/> He is the void; silence & invisibility<br/> So bow your head and worship with me<br/> <br/> Pray to the god of nothing<br/> For he shall deliver<br/> He shall provide you with naught<br/> So become a believer<br/> <br/> From nothing I come,<br/> With nothing I was born<br/> & when I die there’s nothing left,<br/> so to nothing I am sworn<br/> hollow words to an empty god<br/> I don’t waste my breath<br/> I simply pray for nothing<br/> I am not bereft<br/> <br/> Our father who aren’t in heaven<br/> Hollow be thy name<br/> Naught shall be done<br/> By you to no one<br/> No one reveres your name<br/> <br/> I don’t begrudge you your beliefs<br/> I only pity you<br/> Governed by a religious code<br/> In everything you do<br/> Re-incarnation; a higher state of being<br/> Or some heaven is your goal<br/> Forget these foundless dreams<br/> And let nothing claim your soul.

Study your life and you’ll see<br/> what has come to be.<br/> It’s a waste, fucking disgrace <br/> of mortality.<br/> Don’t you sometimes wish<br/> that you didn’t exist?<br/> Despair, anguish;<br/> it must get better than this!<br/> Happiness is just not meant to be,<br/> be like me, revel in your misery,<br/> accept your sadness with dignity,<br/> the fate of all humanity.<br/> <br/> You are to blame, for your own pain.<br/> Life makes no sense. Worthless existence.<br/> Embrace life in it’s futility. Numbing core of nullity<br/> Life burdened by stress. Existences worthlessness<br/> <br/> Why waste your time? Pointless<br/> struggling to achieve;<br/> the views much better down on your knees,<br/> looking up at impossible dreams<br/> no-one wants to hear your screams.<br/> Lower your voice to a pitiful whine,<br/> wear with pride the yellow down your spine.<br/> Of your heart create a void,<br/> accept defeat or be destroyed<br/> <br/> Rejoice in your sorrow<br/> Another bleak tomorrow<br/> Bask in exquisite misery<br/> Accept no sympathy<br/> Bitter sweet the SUFFERING<br/> Crush the dreams to which you cling<br/> Destined for a pitiful fate<br/> You wallow in your own self hate.

I never wanted to hope again<br/> I never meant to care<br/> The depths of these emotions<br/> I found too hard to bear<br/> <br/> I didn’t dare to dream again<br/> I didn’t dare to hope<br/> To open my heart to love again<br/> I knew I could not cope<br/> <br/> I didn’t want life drawn back<br/> Into my cold unfeeling heart<br/> Love kindled, dreams shaped<br/> Only to be torn apart<br/> <br/> Then I wanted to feel again<br/> Recover emotions I’d long forgot<br/> I tried with all my hollow heart<br/> But found that I could not
