Cataclysm

This poem came out in a rush following the suicide of my father. Pure emotion

Cataclysm



Silent screams yet unheard
a frightening fury takes a hold
a devouring pain tightens in on my soul
until I have no choice but to release
or let it consume and shatter my core
my essence...

Pain
Pulling me slowly into the dark abyss
I am sinking
sweltering in my divine mourning
In the heat of hell I cry out
Silently...


Melancholy remembrance
merciless madness
futile and tired
numb now and empty
no longer screaming...
SILENT.
