The dusky skies full of embers
Was the only thing i could remember
Before my mind gone restless
And everything became motionless

Condemned by my own guilt
Chained by something that never be
For the sins i've commit will never go away
In circular motion i tried to make my way

It feels like this life was uncompetitive
For i've been pushed to edge of the cliff
Caused by an obligation i forcefully had to take
Didn't even know how to repent for my own sake

At last, there isn't any means to strive
Empty-handed, no reason to survive
Falling and kneeling over my grief
Waiting for salvation to be lit again

Whispering Shadows
Looming behind every corner,
Deadly Creatures
Waiting within.

Rivers of Blood
Flowing across wooden floors,
Forgotten Memories
Coming near.

Radiating Darkness
You are it's source.
Deadly Wishes
Seeking escape.

Excruciating Pain
Maintaining your sanity,
While Damning Forces
Battle within

There is something about my room that seems to fuel my habitual sadness. There is something, about the way the light doesn’t shine through the windows, something about the mountains of pillows that seem to be calling me into an infinite lifetime of warmth and sadness, something about my desk hidden underneath a wooden box of darkness containing my midnight thoughts scrawled out onto crumpled up sticky notes, something about the anthems of cry babies and alphabet boys that play on repeat and surround my room with an aura of  indie tumblr stereotypes. When I arrive here in this forum of happy sadness I am filled with a certain type of joy. Not the kind you get when you ace a hard test or when you someone compliments you. This kind of joy comes from giving in. When the war between you and your inner self finally ends and you become a victim to your own sadness. There is something about my room that makes my depression bearable…
