A Random Dark Bit of Poetry (Book 1)

Wrought Iron Tears, Stainless Steel Fears

I cant see the moon or the stars

Covered by clouds, up high so far

Rather like you, no closer to me

Than my tear-blurred eyes can see.

I've got my earbuds in and the music on

But all i can think about is how you're gone

So i'll sit in my room and cry on my bed

Thinkin about all that made me wrong in the head

No longer can i sleep

Instead through my mind darkness seeps

I've got this song on replay

'Cause that one line reminds me of you, sweetie.

Crying because i feel so alone

Crushed under depression's throne

Too miserable to even commit

The rhyming my only emotional submit

I cant fight this on my own

But soon i'll be reduced to skin and bone

So what does it matter

Im practically mad as a hatter.

Music my only companion

Through hell my champion

My shadow sneaks into the darkness

How is it there, no light for it to embark in.

I wish i could instead write a song

This is taking so damn long

But i kinda suck at that

So i'll stick with pulling rhymes out of this hat.

Where did my iron gaze and steel attitude go

Melted straight into the summer snow

How do i get that back?

I want to fight against this sad attack

Starting to go numb

All the way from my heart to my thumb

Should make it easier to slit my wrist

Wouldnt that make a nice plot twist

What you said i cant remember

Was it really only last december?

"Im tired" has never been more accurate

But my fake smile will stay immaculate.
