Shattered Poem by Cyrus Shelley

Shattered

Rating: 5.0


This bitter grief
Washed o'er my mind;
I cannot breathe,
I cannot hide,
Cannot escape this depthless sea
of blackest bile.

My body aches,
My wounds, they bleed,
The thoughts of death
Seem to be sweet;
I can endure this life of agony
no more.

The soil beneath
Shall ease my pain,
This frozen ground
Shall be my grave,
I shuffle off this mortal coil
not to be born again.

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
I've been writing poetry for a while, so finally I've decided to share one of my works. Creating this one, I mostly took the inspiration from Thomas Warrior's music and lyrics (Celtic Frost/Triptykon) . The atmosphere of his songs really stirs me, It's kind of beautifully melancholic and yet very mournful and tense.
