The Wrong World Through My Eyes

[Ranokoa]

The world is not as it should be,

Or so this is what I thought.

In truth the world doesn't need me.

A truth that can not be fought.

 

Since sight first came to curse me,

I saw only twisting figures in the wild.

Since life decided to born my melancholy,

I've hated all since being a child.

 

I belong not in this planet of dread,

My placement is in the hellish elsewhere.

I belong only with the rotting dead,

Where the demon fiends will grab my limbs and tear.

 

Pain is the only truth I know,

All else has only ever been a lie.

With eyes high up or down low,

I only hear the screams for me to die.

 

Believe me this and doubt me not,

For this is the only time I may fly.

After my end, after I perish and rot,

My carcass will be unnoticed, and passed by.

 

With gravity falling on my side,

With the clouds an arms reach away,

I'll dive into the concrete tide,

After this that I pray.

 

"Take me not into the heavens above,

Nor to the depths of hell.

Give me not the experiences of love,

Just stop my being, and all will be well."

 

With arms spread and decision set,

I look at my end below.

I ready myself for life to forget,

And slowly tilt forw.... Oh look, a penny!

 

LIFE IS GRAND!

There is now meaning.

Nothing is now bland,

As I a.... oh crap... Can't stop falling.

Dang you are quick to respond... What time is it over there for you at that posting anyways? For me it is 0449 hours.... yay insomnia.... again... This time it's real bad though...

 

Anyways, thanks for the comment Graham!

 

Be well, sleep well, fight well, don't trust the penny.

You are welcome, Ranokoa.

Wow, you did really well, and you did exactly what Keanu asked. I loved the ending. Way, way, way back in the days when I used to try my hand at poetry that is the type of ending I preferred. Don't know why, but it just always kept 'em on their toes I guess.

 

Anyway, I'm going right to your profile to give you the well deserved kudos.

[Ranokoa]

:D That's great, Grannywils! I love it when the random poem brings back memories of something completely unrelated to the topic of the poem as much as how the poem is made. Funny unexpectedness is always..... Really, Mozilla... Really? Say that "teleport" and many other real words are typos but unexpectedness is an actual word????!!!.......... nice when backed up by finishing the dark-sided parts at the same time.

 

 

Be well, sleep well, fight well, live long.

Finally got to this lol.

 

Thanks for making it, even if I'm WAY overdue to see it. :happy:

You didn't read it when I wrote it for you? Dear god, now I feel like I felt good about helping a depressed person by bypassing my rule of "No emo crap." Damn it.... <3

 

Be well, sleep well, fight well, live long.

lol, I'm not depressed anymore. I found someone who makes me smile again, and no, before you ask, she's not my girlfriend, she's my best friend. So many people keep asking me that. VV

 

But even before I met her, things were brighter again, it's just that now, I'm actually happy. :happy:
