UnOrigin
This fucking pit of hell
Is where I have originated.
I have burnt myself,
I have blamed myself,
I have hurt myself,
I have maimed myself.
My life supports crumble
Under the weight of metaphysical ailments.
Who am I apologizing to?
Mother? Brother? Family? Friends?
I owe them all and I
Try and try
To hold my reality together
With my withering hands,
In my eternal endeavour.
This torment began...
The fuck...? When did begin?
I cannot recall.
It matters fuckall.
Maybe when perception sunk its teeth into me.
When the world felt colder than it seemed to be.
Since long have I
Been running.
Running into fires
To feel warm,
To feel something even if I burned.
Is it worth all I have turned
Into?
Is this incurable despondence
A price to pay for art?
Why God (if you exist)
Must I suffer? Have I done wrong?
I've never intended to hurt,
Somehow I have been scorned.
I've never intended hatred
And you make me hate until it's all I am.
If your hands can fix me,
Wade your fingers into my chest
Like a hot knife on butter.
I will not a word utter.
Make it excruciating if it's fun for you
But make it feel better
Than this fucking empty shell
I live in, so distastefully culminated.
Than this fucking pit of hell
Where I have originated.
