My Heaven lies here

My Heaven lies here . . . 
Where the silhouette of darkness shelters me...
Where the smiles came to an extinction...
Beckoning angst as my master...
Where the gloomy flowers bleed out their ache...
Yielding themselves to my fate...
Where the never ending darkness dwells...
And the dawn has its no place...
Where the pace of life curtails...
Eventfully converging with hurdles...
Where the sun dare not to shine...
Where wine swivels to venom...
Expressing their turbulent wrath...
To my dark throat...
Where love died and its ashes lingers...
Where paradise never can occupy...
Resentfully I think to myself...
Certainly, this is where my Heaven lies.

This is emotionally charge for sure. I like the words you use and lines like, "to my dark throat, where love died and ashes lingers..."
