MY LIFE'S CRUEL METAPHORS....


Cut open....bleeding like a stream of lava in hell............

Wounds stinging like a thousand needles pricking my hide.......

Tears fighting to burst out.....like a camp of rebels with a purpose......

Mind numb.....like a patient anesthetized for a brain transplant......

Eyes red....like a red rose with poisonous thorns........

Heart broken.....like an insect crushed underfoot.......

Feelings not in control....like a mob hell bent on killing......

Fed up of it all.....like a prisoner force fed milk through a hose.....

Scared and frightened.....like a convict awaiting the noose......

Waiting for somebody to understand.....like a mother expectant of her children.....

Betrayed.....like a lover by the one he wants the most.....

Tired and exhausted......like a labourer who builds a mausoleum all by himself.......

Confused.....like a fox who misses the camouflaged chameleon........

Angry.....like a pan full of onions on a high flame..............

Sad.....like a soldier who has not gone home in a year.......

Out of love and empathy.....like a bottle drained of its last traces...........
