Thread: The Dirty Doormat

    The Dirty Doormat

    I am everyones dirty rag
    as they wipe their hands on me
    cast aside in a filthy bag
    soiled, used and stained
    only so much washes away
    permenantly marked unclean

    What is suffering, my friend
    How much can I take
    before I scream and bleed
    Can I break my mind
    by destroying the tortured spirit
    When they're finally done
    what part of me will be freed

    So many scars ago
    there might have been a chance
    for standing up, fighting numbly
    Do I have the strength
    as I pick up the pieces once again
    shattered figment rising deadened
    Why am I still breathing, impossibly

    I am the dirty doormat
    lying here to clean your souls
    grinding grime into my hide
    tattered, torn and wasted
    I am what nobody wants inside
    after they walk on me to enter
