Description
::[Scarlet Thread]::Life of pressures, toils and pain
like acid waves upon my shore
that e're so slowly melt way
the me I thought I was before...
Misconceptions all around
spectres of forgotten games
who's players now have turned to rust
from teardrops falling thick as rain...
My soul is bleeding from the wound
that no-one gave me yesterday
I hope I start my healing soon
and from my worries fade away...
Take the razor in my hand
squeeze it now when hope has fled
I feel the razor's kiss and find
the comfort in the scarlet thread.

Um, I hate the subject matter. But the analogy of the thread is a really good concept.

Yes, now this is what I am talking about. I am so happy to see you back to writing, Matrix. Your other artwork is great too, but... you are just an awesome writer and I was a tad disappointed to see you move away from it so fully. But you have certainly come back with a bang as this is an excelent piece of writing. Wonderful metephores, great rhythm... you keep everything within the same or similar sylible count which I, ofcoarse, love.
Just a great poem. Thanks a lot for sharing it with us

No, of course you aren't psycho, my dear matrix, ahem. The imagery is terrific, the words well written and thought-provoking, an excellent metaphor for emotional pain, of whatever type we have.
