Annie


Annie was her name...Her  life was so dull.
Her mother won't let her go anywhere. 
She feels trapped, but why? 
There was nothing to be trapped from...At least that’s what she thought.
Oh, you ask where her father is? 
Well after her mother came back from the hospital , the family knew that she wasn't herself. Annie's father later committed suicide. No one knew why exactly, but Annie did. It was her mother, her mother was insane.  
So where could she turn? Who could she run to?
Annie tried multiple times to escape from her mother’s tenacious grip . 
"Sweetheart, where are you!" Annie heard her mother say. 
Whenever she asked where she was you could suspect something unpleasant was about to happen. 
"Yes mother, here I am." 
"Ah darling, well don't you look lovely this morning." 
Annie just looked at her waiting for her mother to go berserk. 
She waited for only a few moments, that's all it took.
Her mother looked like she was about to pass out. Then she lifted her head back up. Annie wished she hadn't...because now her mother's eyes were not her own, and she looked at her with a menacing smile. One that gave Annie cold feet.

How love degrades the mind

©2008-2012 =AnndreaLeeann

The picture above (the coverart for In Love and Death by The Used) has been a huge basis for many of my pieces in the past. This next piece is truly no different. "A heart hangs upon a string, yet the only one dying is me." Yes! Let these words bring forth the chorus of a damaged heart that continually goes back for another beating. Insanity runs in between each space, each thought, but the each step forward brings more want.

“Five Steps to Insanity”

I.

Dreams, they come alive before this lonely soul.
Where sanity has gone, only Death knows.
Nonetheless, her beauty rips reality at the seams.
But, regardless, this heart she still shan’t see.

II.

Butterflies swarm and capture this mind.
All these tort’rous colors leave me blind.
Intentions, cast them to the wind!
Mentality’s not kind, hers won’t bend.

III.

Leave me now disast’rous succubus!
Give no sign of presence to test us.
How you match my loveliest dream...
But nothing but heartache will you bring!

IV.

You torture me with those pretty eyes.
You hope that the hate in me soon dies.
I want to give in...though I mustn’t!
No...I can’t refrain from just one glance.

V.

I beg of you, please! Take my hand.
Now that I’m here, make me in demand.
Let this be my last, desp’rate plea.
Be someone else, if only for me.
