The darkness

by Sorefromreality   Oct 1, 2006


Imagine a darkness engulping your soul
a force so strong it can devour you whole
as it grows more, up goes the death toll

run and hide for cover, it's coming up fast,
if you can't outrun it, your life will quickly pass
don't let them lie to you, happiness never lasts

run for your life, and everything Ur living for
this darkness no longer hides behind closed doors
an outer attack won't work,it radiates from the core

the blackest of black,chasing you down
before you have a chance to cry, Ur lying on the ground
don't try to scream for help, once it has u, you'll never be found

the cure for the darkness has become an obsession
this darkness has a name, we call it depression
just slit Ur wrists and cry,pray it won't attack
but its too late for tears, the world has now gone black

    Hey. I know it's been a while since I've read and commented on your writes, but I've come back to check up on some new ones and see how you're growing in the writing area; and once again, I've noticed you've improved lots. The beginning stanza was my favourite, and I'm guessing it was probably the one you wrote first (I know that seems like a silly question, but I find that sometimes my best beginnings become a middle or even are used as an ending as I add on to it.) So anyway, I'm glad to see that you're still keeping up with writing, and not only that but getting so much better. I'm gonna be learnin' about writing from you more and more everyday I think :P. So nice job. Sad, but catchy, and as much as you know that I'm against the cutting (because it really doesn't help in the long run) it was kind of cool the way you put original words to it... Keep up the good work!

    This is different to what i'm used to reading from you i think. I really like it though. The idea behind it was clever, and it's written well. I like the last stanza especially. Keep up the good work hun. =] 5/5
