The pain is strong
I am not
It has control
I do not
It fills through me
I sit and wait
It is cancer
I am me
It has control
I cannot fight it
It has won
I have lost
So long and goodnight
DarkSkies started this poem but was not able to finish it and me being the great friend I am decided I would share it with you guys. She doesn't post much because this is her reality. I hope y'all understand. Thankyou~Jinxx

I can see the black box
I can see the flowers
I can see the sorrowed faces
I can see the tears
Jinxx, You were, no are my best friend
You could joke about anything
Make any day that much better
The toughest times make the strongest people
You may not have been able to see the world
But you saw people the way they are
Not by what they wear or how they look
Not by if they have short or long hair
A symmetrical face or a crooked one
It didn't bother you one bit
Weight, race, and gender, didn't even cross your mind
You saw people's beauty no matter what
Jinxx you were the best ******* basketball player I'll ever know
You could rock out like no one cared
Most of the time they didn't
You are the best friend a guy could ask for
I know one day soon we'll be together again
Some day really soon buddy
Remember,
Life is Good, life is great
Always love and never hate
Break the rules stand apart
Ignore your head and follow your heart
I know this isn't goodbye but it feels that way
I love you
Until we meet again I bid you farewell dear Jinxx

How did I get here?
Wait, I can't see
Anyone there? Hello?
Wait, I can't move!
What happened!?
All I wanted was to play basketball
How did it end up like this?

Life is like a box
You're inside
Concealed from light
You learn to live in the darkness
The sounds that your heard
Gave you light
Light of hope that precedes truth
Acceptance of change is a struggle
You have to learn again

But I didn't falter

It all happened in a flash
I didn't know my condition could lead to this
Darkness within with no light to breath
I cried infinitely hoping I could see again
But there's still no light

Only in dreams were my paradise
Faces of mom & dad
My siblings being bullied by me as always
Playing lead guitar on stage in front of thousands
Andy singing:
"We follow the morning star
A light where darkness trailed
The passion left unholy
Now you find yourself!"


Music helps me breathe
The tune flowing through my veins
Like blood streaming to my heart
Giving me light
Pumping everytime
Reminding me, there's still hope

I don't know how long I can live with the darkness
Not being able to move
Reliance to my parents who never gave up on me
A burden i see myself to those I hold dear
But they keep telling me
"We will never give up on you!"

And so,
I tell myself

*I will live life to the fullest
Even in this world of darkness
I will take flight
I will pull through
I will try my best to open this box
Until I see the light
This is dedicated to my new friend on HP, Jinxx:)
He's a fighter. He was diagnosed with a condition that cause him to be paralyzed from the waist down and blindness.
Despite this mishap, he still continues to be active on HP.
I read his works. And immediately i thought,
"I have to write about him!"
All those who are reading this. Please pray for him in hopes that he will recover soon! Repost or like to show him that we care. And go check out his account, he writes brilliantly:)
We are always with you Jinxx!

My mind is a cage
It locks me within
It speaks of doubts and worries
It burns my skin and ****** my veins
My mind is a room
Filled with mirrors
One by one they list my flaws, fat, pale, emo
I tried to run, but I didn't move
My mind is a wonderland
It's a twisted place filled with secrets
My darkest thoughts lurk in the open
My demons ****** the innocent
My mind is my pair of wings
It sets me free and lets me fly
I soar over my problems with ease
My nightmares fade away
My imagination takes me strange places
Would you be willing to follow me there?

I'm surrounded by a sea of people
As far as the eye can see
All flowing in the same direction
And just floating along, is me

I've been wading in this water
Letting it carry me any way
Not caring about which direction
And never having any say

After wading all this time though
My legs started growing tired
So finally it was time to choose
Which direction I desired

But the problem with floating along
Was that I never became aware
I wasn't really a part of the waves
I was just sort of...there

What I wanted didn't matter
The waves still moved as one
Whether I moved with or against them
Didn't matter in the long run

Then I thought I better get out
And give myself some time to think
But I couldn't see the shore anymore
And with that, I started to sink

Now I'm surrounded by a sea of people
As far as the eye can see
All still flowing in the same direction
But drowning in it, is me
