Drawn

This piece was inspired by 'Ligeia' by Edgar Allan Poe.

DRAWN
she opened her eyes
deep
grey as the faded cloak of death
i am drawn
drawn
drawn
deep
into the grey
into the nothing
the vacuum of my black heart
draws slowly
my despair
an ache so
deep
etched upon
my brown being
drawn
in lines
scratches
slivers of pain
pain
pain
blood
red veins
growing moving coming
through the black
recesses
of my soul
deadened
drawn out
drawn out
drawn out
in horror
clawing
tearing
drawing away
all remnants
of feeling
there never were
any
drawn
so indelibly as
my pain
torture
my heart
black love
that
has killed
me
slowly
slowly
slowly
drawn
this cross on my heart
on whats left of
it
drawn
by
her
her blood
