Confidence is the stain they can't wipe off


I follow nightmares
Because I don't have any dreams
I'll be alright here
assuming life is what it seems.

I walk in darkness
because the light of hope left me
but i'll be alright here
with the despair in me

I feel alone
because my soul lost a part
but i'll be alright here
with my shattered heart

I remember it clearly
because it's life changing
but i'll be alright here
I'm re-arranging

I know i'm not perfect
because I got what i deserved
but i'm alright here
with memories preserved

and now I see a light
because its time to go
but it'll be alright here
I'm just 6 feet below

I am now looking at my spirit
and i'm saying goodbye
as she goes under i look at the sky
and now I look back to see that she's gone
she's nothing but a memory, a presence withdrawn
and I feel empty and my world turns dry
but i'll be alright here
i have no tears left to cry

This poem was written when I went through a depressing point in my life. In which I felt my spirit leave me and I had no choice but to carry on and deal with it on my own.

Nor I, have any tears left to cry. Sad poem..... Though, I enjoyed it.
