I am a princess, all girls are. Even if they live in tiny old attics. Even if they dress in rags, even if they aren't pretty or smart or young. They're still princesses, all of us." -Frances Hodgeson Burnett, A Little Princess

Live in the present, remember the past and fear not the future, for it doesn't exist and never shall. There is only now." _Christopher Paolini, Eldest


And I thought it would go away
The sadness
That’s what the Doc would say

But now
I’m a rollercoaster inside
And I don’t know how
I can hide
It all

The Sadness
It overwhelms me
As if, there’s no such thing as happiness
And I can’t see
The bright spots

It’s perpetual sorrow
There’s nothing to hope for
From tomorrow
As it penetrates my core

One day
I’m as happy as could be
And I’m thinking it’ll stay
Then I see
I’m wrong

I’m sad and I’m angry
And I’m wearing black
I don’t know me
But I don’t know what I lack


The Sadness
It overwhelms me
As if, there’s no such thing as happiness
And I can’t see
The bright spots

It’s perpetual sorrow
There’s nothing to hope for
From tomorrow
As it penetrates my core

I write out my pain
Hoping it’ll help
But I’m insane

Help ME!
Save ME!
Take me away!
The sadness!
The sadness!

No way out!
Stuck!
No way out!
Done!

The sadness
It overtakes me
As if, there’s no such luck as happiness
And I can’t see
The bright side

It’s perpetual sorrow
There’s nothing to hope for
From tomorrow
As it penetrates my core
And I am no more


Help me
The sadness
Save me
No happiness

I give up
Living
And stop trying

The sadness
Is all I think about
Too much doubt
It’s madness

The sadness

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I wrote this one day when I was REALLY sad and depressed. It kinda just poured out and, by the end, I had no clue what I wrote.
