If you read my blog, then you know the roller coaster that is my emotions of late. Today I wanted to just feel free. To fly and cleanse myself. I have been wanting to join the 100 word game at velvet verbosity for awhile and today seemed like a good day. The prompt could not have been more appropriate. If Andy Warhol, Stephen King, and Dr. Seuss had a love child, this would be it: CHASMS
Fractured
into a 1000 pieces
Silent Screams
from an unheard voice
that never ceases
Falling deeper
into the abyss
Venomous poison
tickles my soul
with their satanous hiss
My eyes open
but I cannot see
for empty sockets
stare back at me
Through the darkness
My mouth does scream
unheard sounds
not part of this dream
My soul incomplete
no longer alive
the pounding sorrow
begs it to die
Its wicked ways
and vile charm
its seductive embrace
want nothing but to harm
Around my waist
into my veins
I feel it slither
and take hold my reigns
Surrender I shall
just to end this pain

So, from now on, for every compliment you utter about my writing, you must give yourself two. Whether you know it or not, you are indeed a dancer, perhaps not with feet, but with words.
that my friend is freakin amazing! You have an incredible talent. When I read this... I felt it in my soul. just... WOW.
Aimee, you always know how to stroke my ego amongst other things.
Thanks, Miss Rosie. This is one of those things either you get it or you think I need to be committed. So glad you get it.

Full of emotion yet delicately stated.

Excellent poem! The others are right. You are really talented.
Thanks everyone. It's just words. I don't choose them. They choose me.

Arcticwren, thanks for understanding it. Usually most people see my writing as nothing more than jibberish strung together with no meaning.
Welcome to the challenge. :) I'm always a little in awe when someone chooses to 100 words in poetry. This was raw, thank you for sharing.
