I Don't Know

I'm not a hero.
I'm not a villan.
I'm not a sinner.
I'm not a saint.

I'm a boy.
Stuck in the limbo of adulthood.
Paralysed by depression.
One problem goes, another appears.

I try to do right but i am cursed with everlasting wrongs.
Plagued by artificial guilt.

I risk losing everything.
I risk losing the one thing i have.
I risk tainting my love through arguments and anxiety.

Suicide is an aftermath.
A selfish act of poisoned thoughts.
Superficial feelings of pain, leading to self-hatred.

No self-esteem.
No confidence.
No hope.
No faith.

The irony of having an ambigram of the two mentioned words tattoed on my scarred forearm. Oh the irony.

The one moment in my life.
The one moment when i finally have it all.
The moment i have been waiting for, for so so long.

Twisted by anxiety and depression.

I will go on.
I will win.
But for now.
I'm not a hero.
I'm not a villan.
I'm not a sinner.
I'm not a saint.

I am a boy. Stuck in the limbo of adulthood.

Where Am I?

Where is that cheerful guy I used to know. I look in the mirror and it's like I don't even recognize myself. I look so down and tired, I don't see that guy that was so happy so long ago.

24th April 2012

Sometimes I feel like it would be better to not exist, or that the world would be better without me, but it's a fleeting thought.

What He Saw

It took me two attempts to swallow the pills that night. The methadone was bad enough, but at least the tablets were small. The anti-depressants were huge, difficult to swallow.

Not Sure What To Call This.

Sometimes I'd wonder what it be like if they knew what I do when I'm "down in the dumps." I know that I'd be judged by some and hated by a few, even if I am working on pulling myself through.
