The One

A bright soul, consumed by darkness within,
the darkness Can consume us all, dont go down my path,
Once youre dark, u can never go back again.
I have learnt the hard way, I have lernt its wrath.

You start with it all but u end up with an empty glass,
looking in from the outside, to where u once where,
you where once in the house, now u sit on the grass.
while everyone enjoys themselves, you dont undertand, its all a blur.

You dont ask for much, but You ask for it all
while you drown youre pain in a drink,
you cant help but feeling 1 inch tall.
you ponder all night, all you do is think.

What did i do, where did i go wrong,
Youre life has been all around, youve seen it all,
you saw freindship,hatred,lonlyness, but not all for that long.
but you havent felt love,thats youre final call.

but that wont happen,
not from what youve become.
all there is to wonder is,
Why bother?

The man of few words...

I liked the poem, I think it's something we've all felt at one time or another, but don't write "u" for "you"....to me it doesn't look serious. Good descriptions though.

I'm in charge, and I say question authority!
