Deplorable (A Poem)


Deplorable

Twisted in darkness and revenge
Removed from the interior 
Cut away and create and avenge

Shed your skin and look inside
Bone ands veins and pain
These are the things you will find

Reminiscent of the flowing river
 As your artery starts to leak
You get cold and start to shiver

Why can't I find my beauty beneath 
They said that its beyond skin deep
Hang from above my head a wreath

Slice away and dice away my arm
This and that i find Im going blind
They scream "ring the alarm, the alarm!"

[No! I gotta find what Im searching for
Just a bit deeper, I'm almost there
My ears are far and start to roar]

Red tinged ground everywhere
Im falling asleep, so very tired
Im just not all there, unaware

told me beauty was beneath the skin 
How they lied to me the bastards
How my head starts to move and spin

Its true it seems, Im ugly inside and out
Ive dug beneath my own ugly skin
I know Im nothing without a fucking doubt. 

Deeper and deeper I will dig and claw
Finger comes out the other end
I see that Im human and flawed
