Poetry of Darkness

Stricken

Infected, injected, adrenaline kills the pain.

Pumping, thumping, coursing through my veins.

Addicted, afflicted, poisonous to the brain.

Selfless, helpless, my personal disdain.

Madness, sadness, driving me insane.

Slicing, dicing, leaves a bloody stain.

Defeated, deleted, life slipping down the drain.

Striving, thriving, grasping for the reins.

Savior, braver, cleansed by the slain.

My crisis, my life is, renewed by faith attained.
