Eternally Damaged - by Erik Smith

return to Erik's poetry index

 

Go to bed to cover lies
Cover up my fucked up eyes
Wake up with more hidden cries
One more piece inside me dies

Everything runs smoothly
The wool yanked away
Plates not disturbed yet table bare
Sorrow suddenly all right there
Self-hatred released again today

So many triggers so little time
Feeling so alone and without hope
Those who want to help fuck me up
Unintentional subliminal disasters
Bobbing to the surface fucking it all
Shredding reality sending cracks through my mind
Laughs echoing from everything unending
Procrastination and desecration
I don't give a fuck anymore
Thoughts of actual happiness abandoned
Fuck hope who the fuck needs hope
Hope is the most destructive tool I've found
Hopes up you crash into steel
Realize pain and hate is real
Shows you you're a fuck up piece of shit
Proves you really don't have a fucking chance
Fuck hope anyways it's overrated and hopeless, useless, heartless
Makes everything worse than ever imagined
I'll show you scars courtesy of fucking hope
I'm twitching here eternally damaged
