Bullet.
I am a contradiction.
Consumed
darkness
blacker than coal.
I am insane
I am a liar
twisted
contorted
hated.
I have multiple faces
lust
yearn
love.
Think of me
see me
hear me
touch me
curse me
then forget me.
God is a
bullet
inside
me.
Consumed
darkness
blacker than coal.
I am insane
I am a liar
twisted
contorted
hated.
I have multiple faces
lust
yearn
love.
Think of me
see me
hear me
touch me
curse me
then forget me.
God is a
bullet
inside
me.

Wow. Perhaps the bullet will turn into a seed. Perhaps the seed will grow into a delicious fruit.
I doubt that anyone ever forgets you. Perhaps they avoid you if they are trying to avoid some aspect of themselves that you remind them of.

jeanne this comment of yours made me chuckle.Especially the first part about the fruit.
I also doubt that anyone 'forgets' you persay but 'reminding them of some aspect of ones self'hmmm...I have heard that before and often wondered about it myself. Thanks for dropping by and offering your wisdom.

Very well written. Short and poignant, as any bullet can be.
Yet, it can never be sharper than those words.

Wow, this poem is full of emotions seeking to be expressed. Makes me do a bit of pondering. It might even express a bit of who each and every one of us are.
Thanks.

Janus, eh? :) and yes, you seem rather unforgettable, so I doubt you will be forgotten.
the bullet could be your semi-divine nature. we all have a piece of God in us, if you look at it a certain way, in the form of our souls. very well-done, I like it!

You are right. WOrds can be a weapon and kill just like a bullet can. The wound might heal but there will always be a scar...

I love the fact that harsh strong words actually portrays an honest part of everyone, whether we see ourselves that way or the way we think other see us. brillant, powerful, well done :)

Greyor, your comment fascinates me.Thankyou. Is there a God divine? if so where can i find him ? God definately doesn`t reside in me.
Lisa so well said...Thankyou.

The soul is a mystical thing. ;)
and by the way, I've been getting a bit more sleep lately, but other factors have been keeping me up... willfully, I might add! you take care too :-D

Ahh I see greyor. At times sleeping is not always a priority for me either. I have a habit of waking in the night and going for a run outside.It helps to calm the 'overactive' mind when'hypnos' is lacking.

Oh gosh, powerful, confusing, clear and beautiful - how on earth did you manage to squeeze so much in there? Could only have come from deep inside. Hope you are doing okay, love and hugs from across the world and hopes you happiness in your moments, x

That's right. The lava has solidified by now, and it's safe to walk on.

Hello again monika and jeanne. Both your comments have made me smile.Amid all the anger frustration and depression..this was a moment in time and it`s passed..however a lugubrious dullness still lingers. Thankyou both for dropping by and showing an ongoing interest.

That was excellent. Many of us feel all those things.. in side of our 'self' and God is indeed the bullet inside the self, ripping us away from the horrors of those seven deadly sins.
I suppose I shouldn't assume to know exactly what you meant by your poem, but I loved it, anyway.. the end was perfect, powerful and poignant.

Anessa..take care of yourself

God resides in us all if we let him.
Are you letting him?

I think this is kind of Sylvia Plath in feeling.
In other words I like it.
I'm not good at critiquing stuff, so I can't say anything more intelligent than that! :-)

The difference between Syvia Plath and I is she is in a place I`d love to be.
