I am lost...
Lost in a darkness that I did not expect...
Thrust into a grief that has overtaken my soul.
The light within me is dwindling...
It is passing away.
The shadows have caught me in their claws.
I cannot escape.
Tears flow from my eyes...
As pieces of my heart fall away.
I am broken...
Broken and abandoned...
Suffocating.
All my happiness has been snuffed out.
I remain a shell of my former self...
A vessel.
The light has cast me away.
I am falling...
Choking on my screams of pain...
As my heart is ripped in two.
It is dark...
And I am alone...
With a heart beyond repair.

I understand. Completely. Thank you for sharing these emotions. I know how naked I feel when I share some of my poetry. This is very heartfelt.
Ya... And honestly some people might not understand... That most of what I write (when it is dark) is just all the negative spilling out with no positive so that i can get the negative out of my mind and can focus more on the possitive. So sometimes i dont FULLY mean what i write... Its like a "concentrated" version of the negatives... So it comes out harsher than it really is in reality. Thank you by the way
Before commenting i read your rely above. I'm pleased that i did because i now realise what a wonderful therapy your writing is for you.
Yes your piece here is extremely negative but very well constructed. You are a talented writer which i hope gives you positive pleasure. Self knowledge, knowing you are good at some stuff, is a great bolster of the spirit in dark times.
