Undeserved Ruination...

Even though I hate my depression and wish to be rid of it, it'll always be here. Even when I don't feel it, it'll always be there, so when it does come up inside, I'll let it out in my usual poetry. I don't mind it coming back, so long as it's properly ventilated and doesn't stay too long. Enjoy my latest works and check out some of my other poems down below too. I do believe I'm slowly getting better at this....



Undeserved Ruination...

By Cory L.W. Clark

How much pain can one man take?

How long can the strongest will hold?

The pain rips and tears, leaving ruin in it's wake

This is life for you, for that is what I'm told

I watched in horror of the hell my parents saw

Never thinking my fate to be the same so soon

But alas is my future, a pain harvested so raw

My tears as blank and white as the midnight moon

I plead for the mercy I do so deserve

But get my torture thrown back ten-fold

My fading hope is becoming hard to preserve

Wearing down my mind, leaving my body cold

Nobody realizes how hurt and lonely I am

Nor does anyone really care

Nobody really gives a damn

I've come to see that help is rare

Everyone finds their lives so easy

Moving on without the suffering

And look at my life with pity

And see what a hard life can truly bring

Sorrow and despair like no other

A nightmare you can't even comprehend

Forever trapped in a broken Aether

Stuck with a broken heart none can mend

But you wouldn't know that pain

You wouldn't know the hell I've suffered

In happy days you all remain

You wouldn't know the storms I've endured

You think life's cheer is eternal?

You think things won't go to hell for you?

I've seen a glimpse of the infernal

And seen life, raw and true

Brace yourself for hell

Cause life hits hard and fast

It isn't always all good and well

The glory days don't always last

Get ready for the hell you never saw

In a swirling black mess you're left in

I'll show you this worlds burning law

That life can be very cruel in the end

When you breakdown inside

Just like I have so many times

With nobody left to confide

When you're soul slowly dies

I, still strong and holding

Used to life always feeding me it's worst

Will stand above laughing

Watching you struggle, bleeding and cursed

Your turn to be abused

You were raised weak

You'll die cause you're not used

To seeing your life so bleak

I'll watch you rip yourself apart

Bleed and tear at mortal wounds

But will I be there to dig you out?

Save you from you're god given tomb?

When you've seen true life

When you lose all you hold dear

I'll watch your pain and strife

I'll laugh hardest when that final scream I hear

Maybe if I think you understand

Endure this ethereal grave

If by the end you still stand

You're foolish ass I'll save

Don't misinterpret life's challenge

Don't misjudge this torture anymore

Cause life always has it's revenge

And you'll end up six feet in the floor

In the end you will suffer

You'll be ravaged and tore

Pain you'll have to endure

So mount up and prepare for war

Cause life can be quite a bitch
