BLEAK The sunshine's fading fast, The rainbow's gone away, The happy times all left me now And seem so far away. No one understands, No one even cares, No one knows the pain I feel Deep inside my head. I'm falling now so quickly, More quickly than before, How can I grab a hold Of something smeared against the wall. The Shattered glass keeps falling, Slicing me up fast, Breaking off they leave behind An etching of the past. Embedded deep inside me, The splinters bite and claw, They grow and paulse and mulitply Like some unwritten law. A law that says we must endure, A pain that is assigned, The burden of your perseqution Vivid in my mind.
Reason for writing:
This poem was written at a time when it seemed that my whole life was falling apart. I had no friends, my parents divorced and suffered through nurmeous attempts of suicide.
Writing this helped to let out alot of the burning and horrid feelings that were tearing me aprat both physically and mentally.
