Description:
I wrote this after one of my friends committed suicide.
Helter Skelter
Look at the sun watch it fade- Look to the sky so gracefully falling. Look to the ground see it melting through to space. Its all gone We're floating Watch the world fade into blackness and life fade to death- Watch the sun fall down into such a beautiful catastrophe. Watch the oceans turn red- with the blood of the innocent- and the moon emplode in orbit- Stars fall down from the heavens watch reality fade into deep dark oblivion. Look at your hands, spilling my blood. Look at your loved ones dead on the floor. Look in the mirror See all your pain. Take out the pistol Blow it all away This is the end, spit out the bullet and walk past the edge- leaving your body, freedom is here. Sip it quickly for freedom is fickle Taste all of your tears Throw up your fears. Watch the world die Listen to the screams. A wonderful din- of bloody bones and shattered dreams. Watch all you know fade to nothing Watch all you love dissolve away, Your life...fades |

| hmm...so seemingly tragic. Im real sorry about your friend. Deatha occurs daily, such a tragic waste to let it all slip away so easily but then again, it is a release to some tortured souls. You write with such elegance and style. All your words seem to flow together to create one sad picture. I love your poems, what few I have read of them... ->Dark | Posted on 2004-11-09 00:00:00 | by drk_angl_17 | [ Reply to This ] | Wow, all your poems are so good! They're very dark but wonderfull! You have such a beautiful way with words. Great job! | | Posted on 2004-06-03 00:00:00 | by Elegy | [ Reply to This ] | Just like the first poem of yours I read, this is also, [censored] awesome. At the beginning, it was a little repitive, just changing the way you said it, but the rest was awesome. It reminded me of a little while ago, my best friend, Oliver, was with some of his friends, and they were messing around with a loaded gun, and he shot a dude named Eric, in the throat, and he was instantly dead. The title to this, drew me in, I was just thinking about helter skelter, charlie manson, and some other random cults the other day, ironic eh? Anyway, this was really good, I mean, it captured the suicide greatly, and flowed just right. You are a pretty good writer, with what I have read so far. excellent. |  | Posted on 2004-06-01 00:00:00 | by ViCiOuSWrItEr | [ Reply to This ] | |
