Damned Existence

parented by pillars of dysfunction
slipping through the floors crevices
sinking into self loathing dough
captive to a life of anxious fear
looking for a savior behind
dingy doors and stubbed cigarette butts
trying to escape superficial
shallow pull
subjected to self inflicted torture
cursing the mirrors honesty
self destruction in the
name of perfection
worshiping pills mind
expanding release from reality
pearls trampled by swine
pimped by demons
who feed anger and hate
as months plunge into years
hells chains grip harder
sacrificial intimate rites
sealing doom
hearts masked by fear
pretending to be someone else
social death by thirty five
seeking divine intervention
raped by dogmatic hypocrisy
longing for the graves sweet deliverance
who cares?
who helps?
how many like me ask
is this all there is?
am I forever trapped?
give Pandora her key back
and let me off this
carrousel acid trip
