Here are some poems that have been posted on my blog www zaphnathpaaaneah.com. If you love it, go to my blog for more. **** Welcome to Hell This is hell – A place of blackness and melancholia, Anguish and pain, Tightened chest and tear bogged heart; Longing and sorrow And perpetual despondency; A state of internal turmoil Wondering how Eden turned to Sheol How the sweet nectar of love morphed Into Vinegar and Myrrh; A palace filled with mirthless laughter And bland delicacies, Where feasts are filled with sniffles And the skies are always gray; It is a heart mourning for its beloved – At once angry and sad, Feeling warmth at fond memories And cold at the loneliness it brings; It is clarity at what really matters And regret at the deeds left undone – Words swallowed, decisions undertaken; It is helplessness at the finality of a situation That cannot be fixed – And the messy trails at any attempt to; It is the inevitability of a future of gloom. This is the place where broken hearts live And true love is interred, Welcome to Hell. |

Trance I remember a time when my house was your haven The colors soothed your mood; There the harsh glare of the sun was shut out And the cloak of your machismo was shed; There, you could be vulnerable And comfortable. I watched the soft rise and fall Of your bosom many a time And read your dreams – Dreams of bliss riding on contented sighs; You knew that I knew – I was the man of your dreams Watching you whilst you dreamt of me. I remember a time when I was your safety net The one you trusted Trust – hard worn Proven over time Kilned in the oven. I remember – In the middle of the most mundane task – How happy I was. **** If you enjoyed it, read more at www.zaphnathpaaaneah.com |

That first poem was very chilling. I wonder what kind of state you must have been in to write something so haunting |
