More Feelings

by Obscure   Apr 27, 2020


Tears gather on my lower lashes
Threatening the plunge to suicide
All my hopes have burned to ashes
And now shameful devils lurk inside
My hatred seeps from caverns dark and empty
I cannot stifle thoughts that aren't mine
My dreams and memories have left me
Now terrors surface all the time
If I had gardens, they'd be empty
save for poisons, pain, and weeds
I have not time nor energy nor patience
To wrestle for the things I need
I don't know why I feel so lonely
I could have friends if I had tried
But now my soul is full of empty
And my head wishes I would die

    It’s never too late to make friends, even you’ve had bad friendships before. You will find someone who would listen to you no matter what.

    It really saddens me whenever I read such powerful, emotional, dark pieces by young people.

    I also really hope this brought you some comfort<3

    I don't know what to say, this is incredibly powerful & emotional. I hope writing this brought you some catharsis. Should you ever need someone to lend an ear, feel free to shoot a message.
