Depression My Friend

Mentally drained,
emotionally contained.

Sickness riddles my mind,
Thought the mental grind.

Voices condescending in tone, the feeling of darkness when alone.

No one I can call a friend,
no voice of love to send.

Trapped like an animal in a cage, no avenue to expel this depressive rage.

A gun in my drawer beckons, "Use me some more".

I reach for the piece, it's metal glares, the walls close in with accusing stares.

An avenue for hate, a violent episode my fate?

No this will not be, I will not kill again, a stance of defiance I send.

I turn the gun on myself, this will end this day, I can no longer stand left alone as a stray.

Started writing poetry officially in 1991, enjoy reading Edgar Allen Poe, reading and dissecting the Holy Bible, and listening to beautiful/inspiring people. Age has no bearing on creativity. Some of the most beautiful things come from those of much lesser age and life experiences. So listen to those young people!

Prisoner Of My Mind

I am a prisoner of my mind. Chained down by every judgment. Trapped by what society thinks. Cornored by beliefs that you are not good enough. Beaten by what the world has to say.

Alone I Break

© ZuperZed Empty eyes, endless hole. Feel the darkness surrounding my soul. My inner demons looking for a fight. Silent screams, another sleepless night. ...she... Bloodshot eyes filled with fear.

I'm lost...walking up the wrong way on an escalator...an idiot making the same mistakes over and over. I have the keys to heaven but I stripped them on purpose and now I am trapped inside my anger.
