Living in a grey world

[Keanumoreira]

As a child I came to learn, of why the grass is gray,

Of why I’ve come to shun the light, and affection as my prey.

There are no words to describe me, all but hatred true,

All that’s sweet angers me, from them, from me, to you.

 

Happy’s not in my dictionary, yellow is not my friend,

People I hate the most of all, the shadows I defend.

I laugh at those who stumble; I smile at those who fall,

I get pleasure in seeing you crumble, on your knees to crawl.

 

Your suffering doesn’t concern me; your morals have no print,

For I can see your worthless; your looks, your life, your scent.

If you think I’ll lend a hand, if you think I care,

You’re sadly so mistaken, enough for me to bear.

 

I shake my head at joy; I turn away the bright,

I only play with darkness, with evil, sin, and fright.

The coldness I embrace, the warm I lock in chains,

I only go outside, when it’s drowned in hollowed rain.

 

The Graveyards are my playgrounds, the deceased I’ve come to know,

They are my closest family, more than mine can show.

The Grim is my uncle; the famine is my niece,

The Void is my father, his heart his missing piece.

 

For I’ve come to see, for all I’ve come to dread,

This world has no meaning, but only to the dead.

I will live without a mark, with a blank across my face,

And when I die in years to come, it won’t be out of grace.

I love it! It just flows so nicely that it's just fun to listen to my mind's voice reading it. :D It reminds me of something I wrote once, too.

lol, and you're not bothered by the dark mood? It's just something I decided to reflect off of the world's growing anxiety at the moment, although, I myself, ironically, aren't depressed at this moment.

Nope, not at all. I remember writing that other piece when I definitely wasn't depressed, but it took on a similarity to this.

That...Was...Amazing..and I don't even like poetry, but this suits the mood I have been in lately. Very deep, good job!!!
