Violet Sky

Watching another sunset alone in my room

Telling myself I should be admiring it's inspiration

In reality, I am crying my soul out in private desperation.

Why can't I be good enough? or even have better...stuff.

Why did I get stuck here?  No, no more tears!

 

Alone in my room, under a velvet sky

Telling myself some fretful lies.

Wanting to die.

Going to cry!

wanting to die!

Telling Myself those filthy lies.

 Alone in my room, under a Violet sky.

 

How did I get here? Not those F****n' tears!

Why can't i be tough? or shed some of the...fluff?

In reality, I am crying my soul out in private agitation.

Telling myself, I should look like some glorification.

Watching another sunset alone in my room

Beauty is sometimes missed by the sullen.

"How did I get here?" "What happened to me?"
"Why can't I be stronger or better?"
.......
All questions I asked myself.

The simple answer is that you couldn't because you just weren't.
..
but you can always be a better man or woman, tomorrow.

Very nice set-up. It's a difficult place to be when you're reaching for happy inspiration and you just sit and cry. This is honest and sad. A well written piece. I like.

[Thomas Fitzgerald]

Very, very structured and unique to the point of cleverness, a well prosed piece, well done, great read.

I love this poem and its symmetrical form

So they rays of sun were able to share some of their inspiration with you.

Hands down one of my favorite poems I've read on here. Perfect, there's nothing else to say . . . ~BlackCl0ud

Another nonshock piece from you. And quite good. I like the not quite mirror image. With just enough change on each side to give slightly different meaning. Very nicely done I love it!

[Fabric Pulse]

I'm in love with your poem title, lol. But more than that, it's your word style, the realness display.

[Amber Tasch]
