Beauty In The Darkness

I've been in a weird depressing mood today, I like this better than the other one I wrote earlier.

Caught,

In the webs of this killing emotion

Eating away at the insides of me

Devouring my soul from the inside out.

 

Falling gracefully,

In a downward spiral of regret

As the black curtains of my depression

Try to cover the beauty from my eyes.

 

Lost in the bittersweet echoes

The happiness and joy of yesterday

Slowly slipping away

And fading into the misty air.

 

Crimson paints the night,

Taking away the colored hues

Of my brightened beautiful dreams

The paper flowers of imagination.

 

A dying rose, I may feel today

But I refuse not to stand my ground

For there is beauty within everything

...even in the darkness

beautifully written dual nature of pain and resolve blended poignantly~

A beautiful write, you have revealed the true nature of the beast and the emotion inflicted by that dark emotion.

This is fantastic. You describe how awful it feels to be trapped in the darkness of depression. Its good to keep hope alive especially when depression makes that near impossible to do.

Nice, very well done. It's like finding a grasp at the end of the rope where hope and fight to be begins.

This is brilliant. Being able to see the beauty in darkness makes the darkness absolutely powerless. We just have to remember to look for it.
