A lifeless existence

Everywhere I go,
Darkness follows
A stalker stalking,
In the form of shadows

On every corner,
Death is there,
A kidnapper waiting,
To take from the world

Always inside me,
Fear takes hold,
A monster eating,
Until my heart stops beating

Waking to Fly

I felt wrecked.

I lay in bed, the covers strewn around my body. I was cold but unbearably hot. My mouth was dry, my eyes ressistant against opening them. I ached and I was tired. I didn't want to move but I had a need to fly.

I could barely rememeber anything. I had some vague memories of my door bending under the force of someone. I could barely remember someone yelling at me to get out. But I remained in my closed world.

The door was locked and the window thrown open. Cool breezes played on the back of my neck. I groaned. I sat up. My eyes finally opened. Then squinted in the light. It was a cloudless day, the sky a bright blue. Trees swayed, and birds flew between their branches. I watched them.

They were so simple in their existance. I couldn't help but admire and envy their ablility to fly away from all their troubles. I sat entranced for a while before pulling the covers off me and getting out of bed.

I stretched and crouched down. My muscles were relieved to move, but they were still sore. I got up and went to the window.

The wind blew in face, and I only thought for a moment before hurling myself out the window.

Hopeless (Rhyme)

A glimpse of the future is all I need,
To give up hope so easily
Everywhere people lay dead
A beautiful sea almost red

I glance at the present
How long will be spent
Until it all disappears
Leaving all but fears

I see no greatness rising
No everlasting happiness happening
Why do we live to die?
Why do we even bother to try?

*Starry Nights* & *Starry Days*

Among the darklit sky,
Are millions of lights,
Eons and eons away,
They watch upon us,
Through our hard and good times,
during night and sometimes day
