Spare Me Your Apathy Poem by Thelma Roos

My soul is in dark sea of poison
My heart is tearing at it's seams
My mind just stumbles on things

Caught in a dream,
during a moment of emotion.
I just want a touch of heavenly light
But alone I break
Just to dream of life again

But it's taking me down,
Beyond a level of recovery
Was I loosing my mind?
I looked to heaven and tried to pray

A vision of an angel appeared
Like a star to wondering soul
I was forced from this world for just a while
"There's no need to bleed" it whispered to me

But even angels have their wicked schemes
"Close your eyes and you will see" it said to me with apathy

I never even asked why
With a single blow, it stole my soul
Pouring it dry

I moved but could not feel my limbs
My spirit aches
I'm feeling my way through the darkness again

Eyelids heavy, limbs numb
It's the final hour
It's the end, I fear!
