alone dead death deep gone lonely poetry shortstory tombstone under wattys2016shortstory

City lights flash on and off.

Fireflies flutter here and there.

Passers-by move to and fro.

And others are around me, clothed, yet bare.

Have you ever felt so lonely you believed there was nothing left for you? Stashed away, merely forgotten. I mean you could cry and cry, yet no one would hear you. At least no one you truly once loved. Being yourself can be detrimental to others happiness, and so you down play who you are. You devalue your beliefs, your morals fall short and that hollow rock turns into your Mirror. Do you matter anymore? Would anyone care if you simply disappeared? Could you find your way out of the darkness? Look Closer is one of my favourite quotes and so I'll use it as a guide to understanding the complex characters you're about to meet.

Just everyday, unconventional, uplifting, relatable, sad writings. Take a journey through my head. **warning-may make you unconsciously slip into a corner alone, with sad music drowning you through your headphones**

All the thoughts in my head that just won't go away. Maybe this will make you stay. ~~~~~ #77 in poetry [9. 27.17] #90 in poetry [8. 16. 17] #136 in poetry [8.03.17]

Scratching the Surface (Poems) by That_Innocent_One

UPDATE: I wrote these when I was 13 and depressed all the time. I'm 18 now, and, fortunately, life's been going well! Unfortunately, these poems are fairly cringe, so read at your own risk. Just some poems that I write when I'm in the poetic mood. Occasionally, there might be some other people's poems. I should warn you that these can get kind of dark. Updates will be whenever I feel like it. Highest Rank: #84 in Poetry

Blood Orange Periphery / 𝘱𝘰𝘦𝘵𝘳𝘺 by PienPouwels

❝The calm in my marrow spoke in muted bursts of fireworks. I was born for explosions and trying to be less.❞ Over the past decade, I've written poems, books, short stories, fanfiction and hundreds of thousands of words, but nothing felt complete. This collection of selected works was meant to be my final offering- the only thing ready for posthumous publication. Blood Orange Periphery includes poems written in the months preceding the end-that-didn't-happen, some of my best teenage scribbles, and journal entries that chronicle the transition from death-planning to recalibrating life.

The New Life in the Afterlife by 29NKOOKEDRAW

(first shtick here let's see) Death, ever wonder what it feels like? What it possibly could feel if you felt the concept of nothing around you with no say in the situation...? I did, once. Someone had it worse though.

The Way The River Runs by JustMeChloe107

Too many people let me down. Too many hurt me. I walked a lonely path, a path that ended without a light. I made a choice to change that. I changed the way the river runs.
