Dave Flys Tonight

Very strong subject matter reader be warned.

Dave had given up,

Life had been too hard

His wife had been too tough,

Now regrets have scared

There he stands a broken man

Lost,

Void of soul

His broken plans in broken hands

His fear had took control

Wants to choke his neck with force

No resort,

He knows his thoughts

A Life cut short with no remorse

A sorry sight of course

Wife had failed him

He's lost in his black hole

Now darkness impales him

Lost with his black goals

Room like a crack hole

Gloom that grows black, woe

Don't assume he's off track though

He's just wounded and black grows

He stumbles to garden

His brain can't find truce

Climbs up at his tree

Hangs rope,
Makes noose

'The end is nigh'

He makes his statement

Prepares to fly

It's all left to fate then

The rope pulls tight,
Such a sorry sight

He got his wish,

Dave dies tonight,

Dave flys tonight.

They Killed Me

As I stand here. Alone and confused. My minds being battered. It's being abused. These thoughts I am having. Are totally bad. They're poisoning my head. They're driving me mad. Three little voices.

When The Devils Come To Play

When the devils come to play, They always leave a mess, They have never made things better, Than before, they only guilt and stress.

Anxiety's Spell

Anxiety wrapped around my neck, Like a necklace. Swing, hit & a miss. Tightening around my throat, Taking the breath from my lungs. Until I choke. Angels cried, the devil's sung.

Locked in a cage with no where to escape. Breathing hard. Heartbeat beating furiously. Not knowing if you'll be alive that much longer. Slowly dying in pain. Heart is broken. Your mind is the cage.

Lifeless

Hollow sunken-in eyes. Ripped and tattered old dress. This young girl. Was really in a mess. Empty soul. Lifeless, but not yet dead. Empty mind. Muffled by the pills in her head.

My End

The moon shines bright, But it's light can't heal, The sadness deep, inside I feel. My soul pleads for mercy, Secrets tearing me apart, I lock then all away, in the middle of my heart.

Beautifully dark and very emotive. And so true how easy it can be to find yourself slipping into such a place. Great work dude

Very dark and poinient. I like this.

Well written bro, but dark as hell 😥

@leelee101 @DaddyDooDahs @Munford Yeah I started this a while ago now, I finished it yesterday but was very unsure wether to post it, but it's poetry at the end of the day, and yes it is easy to fall into that mindset for many reasons in life unfortunately, but I have always found reason to carry on just when you need it most. Happier stuff to come I'm just clearing out some of the forgotten ones. Thanks for reading.

Great stuff my man, you should worry about what your posting, do whatever you need we won't judge 😊😊😊

Very well written mate

@MrAlex Thanks, I'm still getting used to the whole poetry thing, well what's ok to put out or not, I know first hand the effect words can have if read in a bad state of mind. In hindsight it would have been better fitted to dark stablish, but the switching gets too much. Thanks for reading though😊

@LikeAFirefly Thanks mate😊

@Stablish This was very much okay. Executed with such grace. Beautifully written😊

Dark and to the point love the emotive hun ❤

Wow emotionally charged this...love it xxxx

@RichWithey @misslittleDHP @sjw @DuRoLuRo Thank you all, this was not an easy one to post but all your comments make me feel more comfortable posting ones of a darker nature, thanks for the comments, have a good night all🍀✨🌟😊

@Stablish Have a clover right back🍀

@Stablish your welcome 😽

Dave the coward, I hate people who take there own life so selfish, i write from experience mate I knew someone who did this.

Ditto what the others say mate...dark and disturbing but really good.❕👍

@glen woh! Slow down there Glen! I think selfishness is one (valid) angle on this... People who are left behind do feel hurt and resentful, but people who take their own lives aren't always thinking clearly through their own suffering. And they may be very, very ill - depression can be one of the most terrible conditions to plague a life. And that's my experience, from close relationships of my own, but also having worked with others.

@wolfie my friend killed himself years ago and left his wife and two kids pot less. Yeah course I felt sorry for him, he was my friend, but as far as I'm concerned he took the easy way rather than face up to things.

@wolfie I do know about depression and how bad it can be, it annoys me people don't ask for help

@glen but that's part of the condition. Not enough people actually UNDERSTAND depression. It takes away much of the 'what I need to do to get myself better' reactions and slowly takes away all grounding until, at it's worst, people believe that everyone is better off without them. It's frightening to watch and you can't reason it away

@wolfie Gary speed looked like he had everything great wife, great job loads of money people loved him, I agree impossible to understand unless you have it. But I'm sorry ive got strong views on this and still think to myself that they know what they are doing, they know the hurt they are going to cause but still do it

One last thing then@glen ... Try to think of it in the same way as you would a physical illness. Depression is as uncontrollable. Expecting someone to stop spiralling downward and start making choices which are rational are like asking someone with a cough to stop coughing, or someone with food poisoning to stop vomiting

It's tragic and hard to get your head round, but I think if someone ACTUALLY goes through with it rather than making a failed attempt, they were very, very ill. I feel sorry for your friend's family, but also for your mate. He got a disease which is sometimes harder to detect even than,say, a tumour

@wolfie you are so right, a friend killed himself last weekend, I don't think it's an easy way out when you are suffering from severe depression. I feel very sorry for those left behind, everybody involved suffers.

@wolfie yeah it's strange, everyone gets depressed but we can snap out of it, I guess others get sucked in, I appreciate your views mate 👏👀
