March 31, 1999

The Razor's Edge

You know what its like when the tears will no longer fall
That bitter ache in the back of your throat
The screaming pressure upon your temples
The trembling of hands
The insane whispers that it would all come to an end
No matter how fierce, how brutal
How final the end might be
Fighting the pain, but thoughtless
Lost and wandering, wishing
Hoping, needing
Darkness

Crystalline Tears and Bloodsoaked Whispers

The minutes drone on
Seeping from the continuum like so much
Sap from a grand maple tree
Hate filled whispers
Lustful sighs
The night is just a blanket
For you to hide under when you're down
The razor's edge walked
Nightly, with ease
Betraying thoughts with
Suffocating lies
The truth is my weapon
And tonight I die
