Black Abyss
I walk this black abyss
With no place to go.
It's surprising how I miss
All that I used to know.
Being alone is one of the saddest conditions for a human being to experience. You may feel alone with your family, if you think that no one understands you. Often people are afraid to share who they are because they think that they will be rejected. However, if you are not sharing who you are, you are not truly with the people you love. On the other hand when you share your true self, you risk being rejected. Often individuals seek people out of the family unit with whom they can share themselves without fear of rejection.
I walk this black abyss
With no place to go.
It's surprising how I miss
All that I used to know.

Why do you stand around and watch me cry?
Don't you see me in the corner of your eye?
I'm in so much pain, don't you see?
Why do you just stare and watch me bleed?
The me you see is not the real me.
This isn't who I wish to be.
I hide the pain, I hide the strife.
Honestly, I just want to escape this life.
I was really amazed by the level of sorrow in this poem. It truly touched me. Sometimes I, too, feel myself in the same condition of loneliness and sorrow. This poem reminded me of my blue...

I try and try, but no one can see
That I'm hurt, that I'm broken,
That I'm not even me.
I can relate. I used to have this friend. I am not very outgoing, to say the least, and so I never really made any friends other that her, and she knew this. Last year we were placed in...
Why can't I find love?
Is something wrong with me?
Because every time I fall for someone,
They're never there to catch me.
You don't know me.
Don't pretend like you do.
You know nothing about what I've been through.
I probably will never tell you,

It seems that my only option is to cry,
But day by day I keep asking myself why.
Why am I always sad?
Why am I always mad?
Sorry you feel as I do. It's not good to feel alone. Remember it's not only you, but together we stand. Remember, we're friends.
Glances are chances I could love.
Tears show the fears I dream of,
And after a while I can't hide from it all.
I'm on the edge, ready to fall.
How is it I cry all night,
Yet you still believe everything is alright?
How can you not see my pain
When it is clearer than the rain?
I want someone to hold me,
But I'm the only one here.
I want someone to listen to me,
But I'm the only ear.
Trust me, you're not alone. My parents tell me that they went through this phase as a teenager, but I have taken so many depression tests, and they all say I have it. I feel like there is no...
