When sadness comes
I push away
"No, I dont want to do this today"

Because if I face my fears
So dark, so clear
Joy won't have a reason to stay

Supress, supress
Clean up your mess
And live to smile a new day

I cast a shadow
Throw myself into battle
I am strong
I am wise
But
Im depressed
Should i undress
My mind of mess
For you to get
Whats in my head
Im all thats left
Im intelligent
Im irrelevant
Though benevolent
Im on top
Now im below
Inside my world
Theres no place to go
Feed me lies
So i can grow
Its been a hard few days lately. Hard to grt out of this funj. Found my old poem, thought i would share.

There is so much love
In a world full of hate

I wait
For the right moments
To give in
To let myself be completely open
And vulnerable
Allow myself pleasure
And happiness
But not often
Because I usually forget
How wonderful
It all feels
To feel something
Greater
Than what I feel
When Im alone

I woke up with an aching heart
Pillow case damped from tears
Tried to sink in words from you
That day you left and gone away
I wandered lost without direction.

It felt like yesterday was an art
The way you smile to your ears
Like painted clouds on the sky so blue
Sillily I pretended like I was okay
Yet I silently longed for your attention.

Suddenly we heard of words that cut
Deep into our feelings that yearns
For a moment being in love so true
I desperately prayed you would stay
That the illness was just an imagination.

Little efforts we both had put
On this flower that bloomed for years
Ended with a silent goodbye from you
Petals fell like my teardrops I ran away
I wasn't ready to forget us and move on.

I shed tears flipping through our booklet
Contained the sweetest dreams of ours
As I began accepting and find closure
I promised to be strong come what may
Until some day we shall meet in heaven.
