Damnation by ~nightmarehymn:iconnightmarehymn:

Categories Literature > Poetry > Philosophical > Spoken Word


{Won't let you pull me down}

Your sacraments, too much to bear. Scratching out your mind to numb the pain.

Your denial, all spirals down, comes crashing to the ground

Heaven save my soul, before I turn to lunacy and rage. Heaven rescue me before the world opens up its jaws, the earth becomes my cage.

Fragile, but I'm strong enough

A denial. Trapt in your hate, your lust

Follow me, awaiting the moment I fell. A denial

Lead me down to Hell.....

Your eyes want to close, sleep forever

Collapse. Waiting to shred you to pieces

Don't want to live this life any longer, mindraped, your excuses to make me stronger.

Heaven save my soul, before I turn to lunacy and rage. Heaven rescue me before the world opens up its jaws, the earth becomes my cage.

Fragile, but I'm strong enough

A denial. Trapt in your hate, your lust

Follow me, awaiting the moment I fell. A denial

Lead me down to Hell....

I'm so tired, clawing skin to get my point across

No one listens, wolves are snatching lambs that are surely lost

Choose the right road, be careful, you won't have your soul to sell

I can't take it, choose damnation, lead me out of this Hell

Fragile, but I'm strong enough

A denial. Trapt in your hate, your lust

Follow me, awaiting the moment I fell. A denial

Lead me down to Hell.....

Author's Comments

This poem was inspired by an activity i had to do today. I went on a field trip with my school, though there was really only me, a teacher, and my Russian friend, there. We took these awesome classes in media and journalism, and I thought about the career as a choice for me, I mean its basically writing with money, I was really attracted to the idea. But what of all the other stuff out there for me? What of all the potential things I could do with my life? There's gotta be more to life, more out there, you know? So basically it opened my eyes up, am I crucifying myself, sending my self to Hell for what I wanna do, or am I being saved and is all the stuff flashed before my eyes, really a Heaven in a Hell? Am I damned ot think like this forever, to be spoon fed what I wanna do, theres so much more. I know that now.

I enjoyed this work very much, the word play was well done and the use of style in certain spots was very developed. I found the word hell was used a bit excessively and could use a better word choice in certain other spots, but other than that it is very good
