"Behold thy sorrow of the tears that streak down our cheek and made upon of what he is. Behold our sorrow that we hold within us. Show ye thee of the how we feel of each of us."- Lestat


I've been left
With my thoughts
Too long
I can't escape
The pure essence
Of memories
how a desire
For an escape
Of this
Lifeless hope
What's wrong
With me?
I had the
Perfect life
By my eyes
I had
Love
I need it
To survive
For once I
Was happy
But now
That's stripped
From me
THis darkness
Ever creeping
In
The tears
Won't stop
The flow
As a river
A river
Of self-pity
What's wrong
With me?
Stricken
By darkness
The feling
Of losness
The happiness
Have left
My body
Self-punishment
Is the desire
To resist
Ever movement
Only brings me lower
Oh what is
Wrong with me?
I feel
So at lost
And alone
I fear
I will lose
Him, my dearest
Love
To this ever
Pressing
Darkness
Of my
Depression
What am I
To do of
My Depression?

These thoughts have come to mind over and over and now I have chosen to write them, to express myself. Hopefully it will help.

I love the way your pieces are laid out, the way the poem snakes down the page, two or three words at a time.  Nice work, the emotion is very strong!
