S.O.U.L.S.T.O.R.M
poetry
Take me where the high emotions run
I'll feel them at any cost, just to feel alive.
To drain the emptiness and nothingness.
Make me bleed, make me squirm, but don't let me cry out
Press it harder, let it burn,
Just don't fucking cry out.
Cross out all those fucking exclamation marks,
It my time now.
Hand over the reigns while I lock you in your cage
It's my life now.
My body, my mind. Your soul is lost.
Your heart destroyed.
Your hope shattered.
Shattered like your mirror.
I'll take our reflection and engrave you
I'll take your beauty stick and char you
I'll run you down, leave you dazed
Left alone to clean up my path of destruction.
I'll abuse you. I'll creep up behind you
And grab you around the throat.
You'll love me. Obsess over me.
I'll come to you when you shut your light off.
You'll feel me swimming inside you
I'll teach you, play games with you
Tear your whole fucking world apart.
I'll cut deeper every time.
I'll explore new ways with you.
I'll enter you body.
I'll enter your mind
I'll shut you in a cage, and all yours will be mine
I'll make you cry, I'll make you beg.
I'll make you feel. Feel the intensity.
Feel the rush, the rapture racing through your veins.
I'll take you there. Make you everything.
I'll wrap you in a new world and then I'll drop you.
I'll leave you stranded,
I'll leave you isolated and begging for more.
You'll be numb. You'll feel empty.
You'll be nothing without me.
Nothing can make you feel more alive than me.
You'll run to me you'll call for me.
You'll scratch at the door
But I won't answer.
You'll squirm and drown in your morbid world of torture.
You'll spin. You'll spiral out of control without me.
You'll long for me. You'll crave for me
But I won't return.
I'll leave you.
I'll be gone from your mind
But don't ever think I'll open your cage before I leave.
You'll be trapped inside.
I'll be gone - so who'll be driving?
Who the fuck is driving?!
No one's in control now - no one is anywhere.
You'll search for hope. You'll call out.
You'll scream and moan and tear at yourself
But will anyone hear your cries?
I will.
I'm the only one who will ever hear you.
I could return. Make you feel again.
Make you worth living
I could take the reigns again,
Lead you away from the hustle of the city highway.
I could take you anywhere.
Anywhere you don't want to.
I could.
But do you think I would?
I have the power
But do you think I'm on your side?
Do you think anyone is?
It's just you and me girl.
No one else can hear us.
They're out there. We're in here.
I'll linger. I'll stay.
You won't be able to see.
I won't do anything for you.
I'll stand back and watch you from a distance.
I'll just watch and just when you break out of your cage,
Just when you have control,
When you've finally steered yourself back onto the highway,
I'll charge at you.
I'll tackle you and throw you to the ground.
I'll tear down every ounce of self-respect
And happiness you've built up since I left you.
You'll be mine again.
You'll always be mine.
You can never escape me.
I am you,
And there is no escaping yourself.
