Blurring Ignorance

The endlessness continues.
The laughing mocks me of what I want to be.
Smiles are pitting me, showing me what I could be if I tried.
Pretending to know me.
To understand.
The influence has taken over.
I can't free myself of it, and what it's done to me.
Nothing has begun.
The nothingness won't end.
Fading out.
In.
It's infuriating me.
What I do to you, what you do to me.
What I do to myself.
Tears return, blurring my vision.
Blurring my consciousness, confirming my fears.
My depression.
My fears take hold, holding my back.
Back from you.
You surprised me because I surprised you.
Hating the love,
Loving the hate.
Loving the ignorance that we don't have,
The bliss we used to have,
What we could have if we gave equally.
If we only weren't so ignorant.

To most that poem would seem confused. I personally like the jagged rythm and the message put forth. Understanding is very important.

That poem was really good, I liked it.  If all isn't good now, it will get better.  Keep up the writing!

It seems like you learned from the mistake you made.  Hopefully you and the other are friends now.  Your writing is admirable...keep us going.
