An Excerpt From Life: Part II

here's the second part.

Darkness envelops me, pressing me down.
Chains of sorrow, bound by woe
Cling to my clammy arms.
Do I live for this? Should I?
I become confused by your speech,
Bewildered by your actions.
Your misunderstanding creates a shallow dent in my armor,
A dent that is filled as rapidly as it's created.
But your willful misunderstanding melts great caverns in me,
Sears my skin, Blackens my body.
Your eyes see right through all my defenses,
Revealing all of my inconsistancies, what little there are.
Weeping from the hurts, I pull myself together,
Draw my body into my mind. Reject you.
Distrust rises to the surface, emitting it's foul stench;
I don't trust you at all.
You betrayed me, showed my uncleanliness to the world.
When you had used me for all you purposes, and i was useless,
Youu abandoned me, leaving me on the ground like a hard, brittle shell.
You steped on me, and left me like dust on the floor,
Forever clinging to you.


it was fun writing that too.

Find a different word besides clammy. It stuck out and just didn't fit right at all. I can't think of another word right offhand, but that one just didn't work for me. Not too bad though so far. Keep going. I like stuff like this and some at my forum do what they call concept writing where the different songs tell a story piece by piece. I think this is going that way. Cool.

Nah, I like the clammy idea. Just not that word. The other sounds to burnt and peeling.

Yeah, but I'd leave out the last line, it doesn't make much sense to me.

you're right. i'm not sure why i wrote that in there, except that throughout the whole thing i'm holding on to her to be saved, but she's always trying to "knock me off" and i thought it fit. maybe not. i'm going to rework the whole thing. i also need to completely rewrite all of part three, it just doesn't fit anymore. it got all lovey dovey and nasty.
thanks y'all
