Words of despondency & distress

Deadly red auras are surrounding me with grief.
Here I stand full of despair and sadness,
Lost inside as things around me begin to tear me apart.
Everything and everyone,
Is against me in this world of hate and injustice.
The world is sucking me into its core,
As fire surrounds and burns me…
The pain in my heart slowly disintegrates,
And it evaporates into smoke in front of me.
I look into the flames,
They dance around in my eyes.
Power floods into my soul as my vulnerability recedes..
I wonder in awe at my new found self.
Thoughts of strength fill my mind.
I enter the world again,
As a completely different person,
Ready to face the challenges ahead of me..

As I sit on the windowsill,
I look at the gray sky crying in misery.
I close my eyes and quickly get engulfed in a murmur of voices.

Hate is around you can’t you see?
The ones you hold dear,
Are the ones you should fear.

He’s right you know – that voice you hear,
Your enemies are the ones who will be there in the end.

Don’t be deceived by them anymore.
Be friendly to your enemies,
And give the cold shoulder to your friends.

My eyes hesitantly opened, and I stared out the window again.
The gray clouds have receded,
And the tears from them lie on the ground.
I stare into the puddles they have made.
The reflection I see is far from purity.
My face is cold and set in stone,
No happy eyes or smile grazes my expression.
Hate is all I saw,
And everything around me fed my rage.
No love,
No happiness,
Darkness is my only friend and evil is my middle name.
Panic and chaos,
Crime and war,
All are essential to my pain and hatred.
Dark skies appear around me,
As twilight sets in.
I turn away from my reflection almost in disgust and curse at my thoughts.
I walk away into the darkness leaving my thoughts behind me.
