One of my more depressing poems.","content":"The feeling inside me   \nHas gone and defied me   \nI cannot feel the pain   \nI feel the desire   \nThe need will conspire   \nI have nothing to gain\n\nThere is nothing to say   \nSo get out of my way   \nI am going insane   \nThey will flee at the sight   \nThe taste of my delight   \nThe bullet hits my brain\n\nThe want or the need   \nI can't help but feed   \nI am the only one they need to maim   \nThere's nothing to save   \nThe lives that they crave   \nNo one should ever learn my name\n\nI know I'm too late   \nI can feel their hate   \nI can certainly feel my shame   \nThe people they cry   \nThe fall and they die   \nI have only myself to blame\n\nThe spirits that haunt   \nTheir desires and want   \nThe worst that exists of all   \nThe bells of doom chime   \nThe enemy is time   \nOf which my release they call\n\nMemories referred   \nThe voices I have heard   \nThey enjoy watching me crawl   \nThe horror of death   \nI have felt my last breath   \nThey laugh and watch as I fall\n\nIn death it seems I rot   \nMy tired soul they shot   \nTheir faces grim and gaunt   \nMy soul been taken well   \nSpread through corners of hell   \nJust give them what they want\n\nThe deeds done forever   \nStained on those whichever   \nThose crying non-chalant   \nThe shadows up above   \nThe chiming bell which of   \nThese ravaged streets I haunt.\n\n~bhscorch\n\n[![Creative Commons License](http://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-nd/3.0/88x31.png)](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/3.0/)  \n\"The Haunting\" by bhscorch is licensed under a [Creative Commons Attribution-NoDerivs 3.0 Unported License](http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nd/3.0/).\n\n  \n  \n\n","series":{"name":"Poetry","next":"https://fse.anthro.fr/stories/333590-poem-2-hope.json"}}
