Stories of My Life

Swallowed By The Darkness

My future is at risk.

I knew it already, but right now it's so ever present.

I can't do anything about it.

I'm stuck.

I have to place my situation in someone else's hands.

my whole life has been dictated by other peoples decisions.

On top of that, no one understands.

I can't have a day of sadness without being chastised for it.

"Just because your a senior....."

I'm not making excuses.

I always do my work.

I come to school, slap a smile on my face, and try to move forward with life.

I thought that not knowing the next place your going to lay your head was scary.

Not knowing where your going to end up after graduation is worse.

I feel completely lost.

Floating around in limbo, no place to go.

Most times, I feel like a tortured doll.

One that's been beaten up, defiled, broken, and sometimes forgotten.

I've never been treasured.

A diamond in the rough, with no one to find me and clean me up.

No one knows or appreciates my worth.

I feel like a penny that has no value.

Thrown aside like an unwanted teddy, bye a teen named Life.

His brother, Heartbreak, found me, cleaned me up, just to destroy me again.

I was passed down to their sister, Abuse, who was the worst of the 3.

She left me broken beyond repair.

I don't see the happy ending to my story.

I only see my tears, as they fall on the page.

Like a continuous rain, that causes flooding in the land.

I see no salvation.

Hope is lost.
