    This was inspired by two things, mainly. First, Blaine's forthrightness in Control, and second, my own particular issues. I used to have anger issues. My medication gave me others. Read, rate, enjoy.

    One cut more
    And I spiral down
    I fall ever deeper
    Never hitting the ground.

    One cut deeper
    I feel the pain
    The blood runs down
    Red glorious rain.

    One cut further
    There's no hope, no light
    I love the darkness
    I can taste the night.

    One cut two
    I look over again
    My knife lies there
    No hope, just sin.


    Well, there's what I used to be like. My next poem reflects a salvation of sorts. I found somebody I love. Caring for them has really helped me stop with this. In this one, I tried a departure from my usual style. Tell me what you think. It's really not my best, though.

    You sent me reeling
    Amongst the stars
    Planets and glaxies
    The cosmos is now
    At our command
    Our bodies entwined
    Our minds as one
    Two souls together
    Seperated by skin alone
    I gaze into your eyes
    I share you pain
    And now, my love
    I find it true
    Just three little words
    Can't share my heart
     
    Those were wonderful, TAD! Keep it up!
     
    oh wow, those are pretty good. Th way the first one flowed into itself I found very impressive.
     
    Thanks, both of you. I really did try to achieve a repetitive, flowing structure in Spiral. Again, thanks.
