Depression at NightI felt fine today, I was happy. I smiled and laughed, I hid behind my mask. It felt good to pretend, to pretend I was normal. But every night, I realize its wrong.Depression at Night3 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
The moon, I love it. It brings out the worst in me, it makes me feel so empty. Though, it comforts me. The darkness is so bittersweet. It keeps me warm as it suffocates me.
Depression haunts me when the darkness echos through me. Urges me, taunts me. It tortures me ever so slowly, this darkness making me feel so lonely.
Cant see anything and the silence leaves me my thoughts. My thoughts are my own worst enemy, mocking me. Dont disturb me like this, or ill be cruel. So angry, b
TaintedThe boy smiled as the tip of his fingers hit the piano keys gently. He closed his eyes and followed it. Sometimes its hard to heal your wounds, and sometimes its just easier to forget them. The boy gently opened his eyes as the melody slowed down. The melody was enchanting, he spread his music to all of those around him. The boy loved it, but never seemed to get people to understand it. All his music had a deeper meaning.Tainted8 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
The boy was mute, never cried at birth, and never spoke a word his whole life. He searched for a way to make sound, and found music. He picked a piano and got lost in the melodies, every song he invented had words to follow
Learn To Be LonelyLearn to be lonely.Learn To Be Lonely4 months ago in Short Stories More Like This
Learn to face your fears in the empty darkness of night, with no one beside you.
Learn to find warmth in your blankets and salvation in your own state of mind.
Learn to give and let lose, return what is lost, and give up when all is not.
Learn to have no one tell you its okay, to have no one say anything.
Learn to never mutter a loving word, for the fact being you never had a reason to.
Learn to spend you days distracting your mind from the consuming darkness and deep depression.
Learn to embrace what you know, may cause you to die alone in these cold days.
Learn to say goodbye when all hope is lost, to lose when

Close Your EyesWhy is it humans close their eyes when there is light,Close Your Eyes7 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
but in darkness, we see the whole sight.
There are so many reasons why I ask why,
we keep our eyes open when we decide to cry.
I do not wait for a simple reply,
because every response will be a lie.
We keep our eyes open in the worst of times,
but decide to close them when the tears dry.
Is it because happiness makes us shy?
Is it because sorrow makes us high?
But we close our eyes when we sigh,
and open them with a horrid goodbye.
It just seems no matter how you try,
you can never see yourself fly.
But youll have your eyes open as you die,
and you most likely wont be going to the sky.
The MaskI hide behind this mask.The Mask1 month ago in Short Stories More Like This
I hide from the world. I hide the pain, I hide the scars. I pretend to be what im not, in hopes of losing my self. My heart beat is strong, but I wonder how long it will beat. Though no one knows I wonder this, for they only see what I show them. They only see me fake my smile, pretend to laugh. Try to be happy when im dying inside, its fuckin' perfect. Im who you want me to be, what you percieve me to be. I see you through my mask, and you are all so cold to one another. Im so imperfect, but I will not break. I have cried and begged, but now im getting used to it. Numb maybe, but immune. This is my mask, my only fri

You got scared when someone said your name, you got paranoid when children laughed. Is it me they laugh at, whats wrong? You try to think of something, you cant pay attention.

people would listen when I spoke my words. Never did they laugh at what they heard. I used to dance on the edge of reality, look into my enemys eyes and smile, open the gates to my own happiness. A world worth truly living, no one was hurt, we all were just great. So why now, must I look down to their graves? Things are no longer the same.
I changed with age, no longer the same face. Now I look at the world I used to own, look at the sky that used to say hi. Winds are high and money is tight, now I sleep alone on a lonely string controlled by the pain. One minute I held the key to a new world inside of me, here
Ancient LullabyHear the wind cry.Ancient Lullaby8 months ago in Free Verse More Like This
Let the lullaby whisper in your ear.
The blue sky sees through your lies,
the dawn has seen your tears.
Let the water rise,
watch the seasons change through the years.
The ancient tree is wise,
your feet will tingle when the grass cheers.
Let your thoughts wander to the sky,
things are not always as they appear.
You wont hear a sound as the moon begins to die,
tell the stars your greatest fears.
You wont believe your eyes,
as you watch it all clear.
tell the heavens your goodbye,
dont look back as you leave from here.

I often find it hard to keep a solid stare.
I didnt expect this when we first met,
now you have me gasping for air.
People say I might as well quit,
but they have never listened to my prayers.
But when I talk to you, I seem to forget,
a person like you is really rare.
I enjoy every little bit,
but when I look around, your not there.
Sometimes I get upset,
but you always seem to take away my despair.
But I promised myself not to give in,
but it feels like im rotting in jail.
But who else can make me feel like this?
Nothing else can even compare...
This time, im being forced to commit,

What is love?
Its an emotion. You think its so dreamy, so magical. But its not. Its a never-ending bittersweet game, that you usually lose. It takes compromise, trying to get past the lies. It will have its surprises, and soon youll be breaking down inside. Its a passion that ends one day, because no feeling will ever stay.
Those sweet moments that leave you warm inside, compare nothing to the hurt youll feel when they leave. Looking back gets hard, and now your stuck in the past. So in lov

But what if it dims out tonight,
and then we have no light?
I saw angels fly last night,

So now your decaying heart gets me high,
sometimes you airnt the only one to cry.
I heard Satans cries,
I hear him every time I die on the inside.
So now im supervised,
but my darkness despies your light,
and hate grows to obession over time.
Smoke is on the fire of a thousand lies,
burn it down so I watch the passion fly,
the sparks make up my infiniate sky.
I call it mine.

I have hell in my family,

But I respond with apathy,
I realized ill only get pushed down with gravity,
because everyones a bitch, the whole damn galaxy.

Sometimes I get taken from reality,
but I get sick of actuality.
So ill go along with it casually,

Hit the ground and get right back up, standing on the highest mountin looking around. Walk around the Earth until you collapse, say hello, goodbye, until you run out of breath. Travel like your ment to live, be alive like you know your ment to die. We all fall one day, getting up is how we make a new start. Smile and take a deep breath, the taste of freedom on the tip of your tongue. Through the lakes and oceans, to puddles and lakes, ponds and rivers, the rain wont keep you down. Holding it in for awhile, whisper your secrets on the breath of the wind. Your forgetting lthat forgiving isnt a sin, so t

It will sink its venom deeply into you, embrace you and never let go. Your holding hands with it as you walk though life, relying on it, surviving by it.
Though the rules of whats accepted in life says this is wrong. This darkness is a drug and you should fear when it comes along. But again, what did the darkness do wrong?
Most people fear it. You cant see through it, the embrace of a dark room or the dead of night. But why be a coward and push it away, for what if it really is only there to comfort you...
