By Crystal Marie Forced upon my knees to demonstrate my loyalty My pain becomes her opiate Left with dazed confusion and the acrid aftertaste of unwilling comprehension My enduring acquiescence quells her perennial emptiness with grievous brevity While she carves her name beneath my skin and tells me that she’s proud of me #darkpoetsclub #smallspacedeepimpact #50wordchallenge
By Sticks & Stones Poet In my pale moonlight hands, I hold forgotten empires, Ruby red realms Serpentine’s lineage, The Queen's mitochondria, How reckless my heart , I’ve become, So desensitised, To the sight, Of my own blood, As I sit transfixed, Seeing beauty in the death, Imagining, galaxies in crimson, Ravaging me. #darkpoetsclub #smallspacedeepimpact #50wordchallenge
By Anthony Gorin of Beauty In Normalcy This heart so jaded, hurting, in between, every fibre of my being. To this, what is even the point of living? But the beautiful moments. Finite as they may really be. A heart trying to live, to love. Only dying in the process. #darkpoetsclub #smallspacedeepimpact #50wordchallenge
