Where does this all come from, my thought's
are so dark, I feel so alone and yet I'm not.
I feel like a stranger lost in a sea of agony
and dispare - lost in a nightmare to deep to
ever return from it with my soul intact.
Voices scream within my head, demanding
to be heard - yet I fear what they say.

Thought's to dark and dangerous to share
with anyone for fear of what the one's who
say they love me will think - worried that
they may begin to think differently about
me and not love me as they did.

Oh the problem's I have
made for myself
such lies I have told.
Would they ever believe me?
How could they?
Why should they?

Oh the dispare and misery that torment's
me night and day - how much longer in
agony will I be made to suffer this way.

All hope is gone from my life, I have
surrendered myself to this darkness that
surround's me - all light has faded from
my world, no love or joy can enter here
the gates are closed forever to any
happiness that I might have had in this life.

Forever in darkness shall I remain.

You'd think this would be the perfect site for sharing your dark thoughts with strangers who might feel the same, but as I can see from the las comment, not a chance. Journals are boring. I've kept several. All they do is show you how naïve you once were. Sharing with human beings, even online, is much more theraputic, and takes a LOT of courrage. We who write KNOW. You don't feel like your poetry all the time, just once in a while, and the fleetingness makes it all the more beautiful! And one spelling error isn't going to diminish the average reader's enjoyment. That commentator is an ass.

SPELL CHECK??????????

thought's to dark= "thoughts TOO dark".. America is doomed with all the ignorant people trying to write who haven't even completed 3rd grade English. all this deserves is a back click. And IF your life sucks so bad, keep a journal, don't spill it on the page for us all to gag over because you will not get pity from this selfish bunch here
