I, Pharoah

ven0m

I the pharoah entombed,
forced into life from the womb,
mothers hand in creating this man,
one the world refuses to understand,
finding myself in the shadows,
of my own darkness,
revealing the lies and the starkness,
of the reality set before me,
while the pain flows through,
the veins beholden in chains,
of a heart not set free,
of a man meant to be,
surrounded by a life he can't see,
what's become of me?

Take me away from me,
Bury me shallow in the deep,
as my soul starts to weep,
for a life unheld in the
creation of my own hell,
pushing against the grain,
of the pain I keep tamed,
while it overcomes the mind,
as I try to find my own voice,
in the whispers of the recesse
of my own darkened soul,
down in the hollow I swallow,
all hope in my life whole.

All gone in emptyness inside,
needing something to open my mind,
broken down like the toy,
of a young boy left to rust,
only pain is real & all I trust,
drag the needle, inject the black,
pierce the skin make it crack,
hurt myself again just so I feel,
feeling the real of my demon's deal.

my dear Venom,
You have a great talent. I certainly hope you do something with it.
I wonder, do you put your writing ability to other uses? I'd love to see some other form of writing from you as well.
I will say that this poem is great but the structure needs to be defined, too many commas.
keep them coming

I've always written, & have a collection of over 50+ pieces I've written which is constantly expanding. Have been contemplating putting them in a website online, which I still might do - considering I started to do this a year or so ago.... might be time to revisit that idea!!! thanks for the feedback - I had it broken up earlier, think I'll re-jig it...
