Kuro Taiyō

A Poem by Simon Welsh
"

It's like I exist between light and shade

"
Three cheers for misery
He's been my best friend
Mixed state. Mixed feelings
Diagnose; I am just a wasted soul
Three cheers, three cheers
self lacerating burst of fury
I'm laughing when I should be crying
I can feel everyone's stares upon me
it's like I exist between light and shade

Who needs sunlight? I burn easily
Who needs the night? I can never sleep
Heaven is debris among the clouds
My angel wings were cut a long time ago

All smiles are passive and kind
I see only the disgust that isn't there
at least until my back is turned
It hurts more than any cigarette burn
Riding high on a wave of mutilation
well.. only in my memories
I won't want to upset anyone
who wouldn't care otherwise

Who needs sadness? I'm happy now
Who needs happiness? I'm caught between-
Hell is a wasteland; I miss everyone
particularly those I couldn't bear to be around

Three cheers for misery
I can't find inner peace
when I'm resentful at those around me
for just being happy and content

Please remain, misery
when you leave I have no one else
and it's a lot more lonely
not knowing what to feel

Better loneliness than no feelings at all. Well penned piece as you look inward to your life. Just don't let the ones you miss and look upon you negatively define you. Sometimes lonely is fine if we can find comfort in knowing and understanding our own self.

Others may judge, but it is not a true view. Only you know what is truly in you. Nice work.

I agree with Willard. Better loneliness than no feelings at all. Though I can also see where no feelings could be better, but that's just me. This is amazing, and I will stand against those who say otherwise.


Nice work. Keep it up.

Your words always feel quite melancholy. Well done.
