Dark Poems Quotes

“This is not life.
This is not living.
This is a prison,
where the bars are my own ribs,
where my heart is held captive.

I scream inside this skull,
but the sound loops endlessly,
fading into the vast emptiness.
I do not belong here.
I do not belong anywhere.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind

“A bitter taste
settles on my tongue,
and I feel the sting
of an unspoken insult.

In this stark moment,
I question everything:
the words we shared,
the laughter that once felt real,
the trust I placed in your hands.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind

“Sometimes,
my afflictions are so grievous
I feel as though
I am condemned
to a life of endless suffering,
as if paying penance
for some unknown transgression
in a life, long past.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind

“How we hunger
for the tender regard
of another’s longing,
some silent pledge
that we occupy a cherished place
within the cosmic dance,
like a lone star
lamenting its solitude
upon the infinite
canopy of night.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind

“The weight of such a loss
was far too bitter to endure.

Though I know,
within the depths of my soul,
they carried a poison
that seeped into my very being,
an unshakable obligation
still stirs within me,
binding my heart to theirs,
despite all reason.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind

“My hope has dimmed;
in our absence, fanciful that
we might begin to shed the weight of sorrows long borne.

Perhaps our next meeting shall transpire,
amidst the shadowed realm of death,
by the course we have chosen.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind

“And now,
my words seem empty, hollow.

I am left allergic
to your presence,
disgraced me,
not once, but twice.

The very DNA we share
is tainted, fractured.

In the presence of all,
I shall bear it no more.”
― Nyx Thorn, VERSES OF THE BROKEN: Echoes From A Fractured Mind
