Anger, rising from my heart
The silence around me
Making the world an ugly art
Tolerate, that's what you told me
I can't do it
Everything is seen unclearly

Remember, you played a part
Misleading words said from the start
One day, when you're old and weak
I'll get you back
For those words you said at your peak
The emotions I've lost
Cannot be revived
Darkness surrounds me
It's a sad life

Soul, drained of feelings
Looking around, am I really being?
Existing in this hideous earth
Bitter to have ever been given birth

I really can't feel anymore
Happiness – it was nothing but folklore
A charade – lies that were told
But if I take it to the grave with me
The truth is sold

I'll get you back
For those words you said
Emotions I've lost
Cannot be saved

You're two-faced and full of hate
You dance around waving your bait
''Come with me, I'll be your mate''
Lies and nothing more
Where you later said
''You're stupid and not fit to be my friend''
''This is going to be the end.''
read to the end.

Being numb is hard... I'm not going to lie. It is probably one of the biggest causes of suicide... because you feel nothing but the desire to end it all, to just fade away. But... and I guess I can't take my own advice for the life of me... there is light at the end of the tunnel. Fortunately depression is not usually chronic. I just.. I hope you're okay. If I'm over thinking this, then great, and I'm sorry for bothering you. I just want you to know that it DOES get better, little by little and inch by inch, to the point it doesn't seem to get better at all until one morning the sunlight in the morning actually makes you smile..

I really liked this poem, too, just so you know. You have talent for putting the emotions behind the words and rooting them there.

Now.. If this is annoying I apologize, however: if you need someone to listen, or just to vent all your anger to, I can be that if you desire me to be. I know what it's like to feel so confined to the point your own body is a prison... However I firmly believe that letting it out helps. So if that's what you think you need, don't be afraid to hit me up. I honestly don't mind.

I hope you're okay, and if this was all just a exagerated poem then I apologize for overthinking it.

Best wishes to you, and I hope you can keep your chin up. We all have to keep fighting, right? Who knows what great things life has around the next corner? :) :tighthug:
