Doomed To Repeat Poem by Paul Burt

Why Can't I see?
Why Can't I feel?
Am I blinded by the lies?
Am I numb by the pain?

One heartache leads to another, why can't I be happy?
Numbed by the emotional pain, yet I can feel nothing but sorrow.

Trapped between love and hate
Trapped between pain and pleasure
Trapped between life and death

All these things pass me by yet I feel nothing by them all.

Madness begins to set in my mind and soul like a cancer
I don't want to live through this nightmare anymore!

I close my eyes to wake up in a better place
only to be denied.

I crave to stab my eyes out to see no more lies and atrocities
only to see more of the same.

Pray for Death to release me
only to be ignored.

Can't buy my way into Heaven!
Hell dose not want me!

Trapped in a world I don't want any part of anymore.

Doomed to repeat it all again in the next life.
